debootstrap does not install exim?



I am running Sarge, but used debootstrap to create a chroot for Etch, to prepare for when Etch is stable. I did this, instead of just doing 'apt-get dist-upgrade' because over the years (since Bo, or Hamm) a lot of cruft has developed and I wanted to clean the system up. On checking which packages were installed for Sarge, but not Etch, that I might actually want, I noticed that exim4 is NOT installed, neither are sendmail, mailq, or rsmtp. There does not seem to be an MTA installed. Is this correct? Should I just install exim4? Is there a planned change in MTA for Etch?
