As maintainer of ssmtp I would be more then pleased to have it included 
as default MTA. Unfortunatelly it is close to useless without a real MTA 
(read: mailhub) around. It cannot be used even by thunderbird who 
expects to talk SMTP with outgoing server(s) ( the presence of a binary 
called sendmail is not enough ). I've found ssmtp to be most useful in a 
farm of computers which can/should send their mails to a central server
