Hi Anders
What you can do is perhaps telnet into port 25 and see what service is running.

like this :

host# telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 somehost.com ESMTP Sendmail 8.14.2/8.14.2; Mon, 14 Jul 2008
15:11:00 +0200 (SAST)

You are probably running Sendmail.
You can read more here :

Hope this helps.
Karl
