msmtp-mta was created so that msmtp could be installed in parallel of a
real MTA (see: #396527)

That's the goal of msmtp-mta: provides sendmail compatibility without
having to create symlinks manually.
msmtp-mta ships a minimal smtp daemon but it is (normally and on purpose)
disabled by
default so there is no daemon listening unless you enable it.
