AFAIK those tools are used only by users of text based mail clients
like mutt, pine etc.
Mutt already has smtp functionability built-in in latest versions so for
people using mutt, they should start using it if they already havent.
IMO msmtp is the best of the *smtp's. Glad its staying in extra.
BTW theres also esmtp in [community] already.
