Does /usr/sbin/sendmail -bp work (it should list the mail queue) or
do you get the same error?

Exim exists, no problem there.  When I try /usr/sbin/sendmail -bp nothing
happens.  I just get another prompt.

I'm not an exim user, so I may be wrong, but amanda actually needs a
mail program that accepts this syntax:

        Some_Mailer -s Subject user < msg

Sendmail does not.  Neither do the usual sendmail alternatives.
You need the berkeley mail program:  Mail, mailx or mail.
