You have nothing listening on port 25?
Nothing in /usr/sbin/sendmail or /usr/lib/sendmail?

no files in /var/spool/mqueue?

Various bits of the system will want to send mail from time to time; crond 
does and it runs programs to update the database for the locate command 
and various other things. You don't have to have sendmail, but you do need 
some mail transport.
