That is roughly what system-switch mail does. This is it enabling sendmail:

        os.system('/usr/sbin/alternatives --set mta
/usr/sbin/sendmail.sendmail')
        os.system('/sbin/service postfix stop 2>/dev/null >/dev/null')
        os.system('/sbin/service exim stop 2>/dev/null >/dev/null')
        os.system('/sbin/chkconfig postfix off 2>/dev/null >/dev/null')
        os.system('/sbin/chkconfig exim off 2>/dev/null >/dev/null')
        os.system('/sbin/service sendmail start 2>/dev/null >/dev/null')
        os.system('/sbin/chkconfig sendmail on 2>/dev/null >/dev/null')

You can read /usr/share/system-switch-mail/functions.py for more details.
