I think you're right that having a network makes the MTA more useful. :)
 However given the prevalence and popularity of pre-packaged software in
the Unix world it's probably worth thinking about what parts of the
build/configuration process need to be done at build time, and what
parts should be done at run time.

Not only do I work on the FreeBSD project generally, I also maintain a
package building system that we use at $JOB to install packages on the
various remote hosts. Having those packages do the right thing even if
the package builder and the remote systems don't have identical
configurations is a huge advantage.
