But as I mentioned the system already has exim as its MTA. zmailer provides the same thing, an MTA. I would have thought that when I installed logrotate it would need a mailer (OK) and it wanted mailx and that needed an MTA. The packaging system should have realised it had exim on and so not insisted on installing zmailer. What I can't follow is that on this Debian system here at work (Pentium) and on my Intel 486 at home zmailer is not required but on the Alpha Debian, as you can see from the apt-get lines mailx depends on zmailer.
