Public bug reported:

When installing mutt in Jaunty (and also mutt-patched for that matter),
it reports that the following extra packages will be installed:

bsd-mailx exim4 exim4-base exim4-config exim4-daemon-light mailx

I don't believe this is correct.  It should install a mail program but
it doesn't have to be exim.  For example, I try and keep my mail needs
to a minimum and so I simply use msmtp.

I think the mailer used on the system should be determined via the
alternatives system.  In which case this bug maybe in fact that exim
and/or msmtp do not hook into that correctly, if at all.

Mutt version:  1.5.18-6ubuntu1
Ubuntu version: 9.04

Mutt includes exim when any mailer would suffice
