repoquery --whatprovides smtpdaemon

all of those packages provide the necessary virtual provides that
fetchmail is asking to be filled. So in reality.. this particular
example is a non-problem. Any re-spinner has the option of using any
package that provides smtpdaemon... modularity via the virtual
provides.

repoquery tells me that the only things that explicitly need sendmail
are milter related.
