What use do you find for an MTA if you're using IMAP? You don't need to fetch
(and eventually distribute/redistribute) mail, as you're leaving it on
the server.
Of course, there's the question of local daemons (etc.) sending system messages to
root (there are small, simple solutions for that).
As far as having multiple smart hosts, alpine (my mail client) handles
that with "roles" easily enough. I'm sure (well, I'm optimistic) Mutt
can do the same thing.
