Given the degree to which sysadmins are religious about MTA choice, I'd 
suspect that a large proportion of people who run an MTA on Fedora are 
probably already swapping it out with their own preference. I don't 
think it's realistic to expect us to provide a product that requires no 
further configuration for server admins, so adding "Install an MTA" to 
the list of things they have to do is entirely reasonable.
