Large enterprises have tight controls over email for security, legal, and business continuity reasons. Those controls could break down if MTA's are installed by default without explicit action by administrators. One consequence is a move away from using email for status reports (cron, logwatch) towards job management tools that provide resource management and scheduling as well as logging and status reporting. Maybe Fedora will need small business and hobbyist spins. -- George N. White III
