MySQL-server-5.1 indirectly installs postfix

I tested with a VPS, if you have an MTA installed prior to MySQL install
(other than Postfix), Postfix is not installed, which is a good thing!
In this case I was setting up a dedicated MySQL box so really didn't
want/need an MTA on there. We already have load balanced Exim servers
for mail!
