/usr/sbin/base-config to switch from one delivery mode to another
dpkg-reconfigure <mua's,mta> for all mua's mta's installed on the system
would be the steps to reconfigure. Now while you said and I think about
it, each program working with mail-spools could register itself on
installation and de-register on de-installation, so the reconfiguration
process could be automated.
Let's make a package "maildelivery" and
dpkg-reconfigure maildelivery
would do the job above.
