Title:
  Recommend lsb-invalid-mta to satisfy other packages’ MTA
  recommendation by default

Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  It might be worth considering for ubuntu-standard to have

  Recommends: lsb-invalid-mta | mail-transport-agent

  in order to satisfy the mail-transport-agent recommendation of many
  packages (such as apt-listchanges, mdadm etc).

  lsb-invalid-mta installs a tiny /usr/sbin/sendmail that just prints
  “Please install an MTA on this system if you want to use sendmail” and
  fails.

  The admin is free to replace it with a real MTA of her choice if that
  is desired.
