I would say that all MTAs except exim, exim4, postfix and sendmail can
be kicked off debian if they have RC-bugs and no one is going to fix
them in adaequate time. Two up-to-date MTAs are enough, and sendmail
and exim are there for legacy reasons. (Similar conclusions could be
made for webmailers, ...) However, if someone provides up-to-date
packages this is also ok. But the valuable time of bug squashing
parties should not be wasted for the fifth or sixth MTA.
