Debian Jessie, I presume?

service exim4 stop
apt-get install exim4- lsb-invalid-mta
rm -f /usr/lib/sendmail
rm -f /usr/sbin/sendmail
# and now link in qmail binaries from where you put them
ln -s /var/qmail/bin/sendmail /usr/lib/sendmail
ln -s /var/qmail/bin/sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail

Note the unusual usage of apt-get install, where we specify a
package to be removed with a trailing - as well as a package 
to be installed (to satisfy dependencies for an MTA).
