I am pretty sure the default should be to push everything to the
logs.

But note that in the container case you are likely to encounter a setup
where you install the host host, and then add one container for mail,
another one for web, a third one for database, and so on. If you do that
it would be really bogus to include sendmail in the minimal set...
