I recently got tired of playing with sendmail, so I setup postfix, then
tried qmail to see which one I liked the best, so went back to postfix,
and now whenever I try to start postfix I get this error in the
maillog:  postfix/master[1096]: fatal: bind INADDR_ANY port 25: Address
already in use.  I'm assuming this means it cant bind to port 25 because
something else is using it.. but I don't know what is. Running top shows
nothing smtp related is running, but a netstat -a  shows this:
tcp4       0      0  *.smtp  *.*  LISTEN, so obviosly something is
binding to port 25, but I have no clue what it would be, as I
deinstalled qmail before going back to postfix, and have renamed all the
sendmail binaries. Any suggestions welcomed, thanks!
