Multiple tools (e.g. cron, php, MUAs) expect a sendmail compatible
program to send emails. We currently don't have a /usr/bin/sendmail
so these tools need more configuration or don't work.
Installing a complete MUAs like postfix or sendmail on every system
seems to be to much overhead. MUAs need to maintain a mail queue,
generate bounce email, require daemons, user-idents, privileged code
and a lot of configuration.
msmtp in not a complete MUA, but provides a sendmail compatible
interface. The plan is to configure it to pipeline email to
our central mailhub.
