Default Mailman uses SMTPDirect.py to send. This in turn uses the
python smtplib to establish connection to SMTPHOST and SMTPPORT for
sending. The defaults for these in Defaults.py are 'localhost' and 0
respectively. Port 0 tells smtplib to use its default which presumably
is 25.

Thus if you set SMTPPORT in mm_cfg.py to some value other than 0 or 25
which won't conflict with other ports and set up Sendmail on localhost
to listen on that port while leaving Exim as your incoming MTA on port
25, I think that would do it.

Or you could use Sendmail on a different host by setting SMTPHOST.
