By default, ubuntu/kubuntu doesn't install an MTA at all.  If you install
something like mailx, it will - surprisingly - install exim if you don't
_ask_ for a specific "mail-transport-agent".  I say "surprisingly" because
in all previous versions, the default was postfix.

# sudo aptitude install mailx

would install mailx and exim4

# sudo aptitude install mailx postfix
 
would install mailx and postfix
