Sorry, my fault. Now that the package is installed, type
rpm -qi mailman
and you will get a description of steps to follow after installing.

If using mailman, have you configured it to accept incoming mail? Look
for a line like
dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')
in /etc/mail/sendmail.mc and make sure it starts with "dnl". Then
regenerate your sendmail.cf:
make -C /etc/mail

I haven't done this before, but I think you want to look in
/etc/mail/sendmail.mc for
dnl Uncomment and edit the following line if your mail needs to be sent out
dnl through an external mail server:
dnl define(`SMART_HOST',`smtp.your.provider')
and configure that for your exchange server and rerun make. No guarantees
though. But usually bad advice will draw a correction 8^).
