In Squeeze if you de-select 'every' task possible during the installer, you still get Exim installed because of Cron. It needs an MTA (Exim4). After my fresh new system is up and running, I can install Postfix (which I did) and it also removes the conflicting MTA (Exim4) automatically: > r...@mail:~# apt-get -y install postfix > Reading package lists...
