I've used Exim, basically because it's (was?) the Debian default.
I do not want a default software just because it is the default.
Otherwise I would have be perfectly happy with

Not MTAs… I guess you're going one further and suggesting
I recommend exim. I've used it for 10 years. It is heavy-weight for
desktops/laptops, but the Debian packaging around it makes such
configuration situations a lot simpler. (The same packaging gets in the
way of running exim on a server, IMHO).
In the past I've tried simple MTAs designed for

That's what I told the OP.
There are hooks which let you re-configure arbitrary configuration items
for certain events.

mutt is capable of retrieving mail via IMAP or POP3. An alternative
option is getmail4.
You may want to use msmtp for sending mail.
