+Section: universe/mail
+Priority: extra
+Description: Tells the package management system /not/ to go looking
+ for a Mail Transfer Agent such as exim or ssmtp.  This is useful if
+ you plan to install a proper MTA later and don't want broken
+ depenencies in the meantime.  It is also useful if you have installed
+ by hand something that provides MTA functionality, and you don't want
+ to bother making a .deb package out of it.
