> Trying to remove any MTAs from my system... Normal unix OS's require an MTA to be defined. Portage has virtual mta placeholders that define the MTA that is installed on the system (i.e. I'm using postfix).
If you don't have an MTA installed (which you don't), portage knows that the MTA is missing and wants to install ssmtp as the default mta. The question I have is why would you want to remove all MTAs? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
