What are those "many programs"? On my Debian desktop, I happen to like
to have an MTA running (exclusively for outgoing email), but I just
tried "aptitude remove postfix" and postfix was removed without
complaining that other packages needed it.
Probably the problem you're seeing is just a packaging bug.
Moreover having to run a cron job to remove `exim4' seems to point to
a real problem somewhere.
