Hrm, I always thought they were hooked up with alternatives and could supply 
the role of sendmail should you want something else.  I thought most our 
software that sends mail out has a generic require on mta with the assumption 
that should something be brought in via the mta requirement that it would set 
up alternatives correctly and operate in an expected way.  In my opinion 
these are not simple Provides for just anything that could handle mail.
