How do I convince Debian that I have my own MTA, thank you very much, and it shouldn't attempt to install one of its own choosing? Is there a way to permanently fulfill a dependency by hand without installing a package? I'm not interested in having to tell dselect, dpkg, or apt to ignore dependencies. I want to tell them that I have fulfilled a dependency via non-package means, and never be asked about that dependency again.
