Automatically switching to postfix may cause very bad surprises as well if
you have tweaked your sendmail config to do special things.  I think the
only reasonable thing we can do is *document* the options so the user can
decide for himself which way best suits his needs.  We can make postinstall
detect whether sendmail from base is/was being used (by checking whether
mailer.conf refers to /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail) and make it scream
and point to the documentation?
