In those environments an MTA probably isn't (really) needed because an MUA is probably all that's used... or all that the human 'thinks' they need. But, personally, I agree with billycr...@gmail.com... 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 best, most-efficient way to deal with the email. I say... servers should definitely have a default MTA. We shouldn't confuse the need/use of an MTA with that of cron, syslog or journald. They're purposes do not overlap.
