Cron is the only thing that is installed in a default setup that actually 
requires mail delivery. For most people, a shell script will do all that's 
required. Anyone needing something more sophisticated can easily add postfix 
or another MTA to do what they want. As for the other apps, they would 
obviously pull in by Requires a real MTA.

We had to make this short circuit for LSPP because there is no Open Source 
mail system that understands MLS. But what we did might solve the 99% use 
case.
