On the servers I run, and the server applications I've written,
the use of email is mandatory and the use of an MTA is the

I say... servers should definitely have a default MTA.
IMO email is terribly crappy way of informing. You get way too many
emails. In any case, as soon as you have more than a few servers, you'll
have some configuration management thing to set things up, e.g. Puppet
or anything similar. I dislike sendmail, prefer Postfix. All of that is
automatic.
