smtpdaemon's the oldest one, dating back to at least 1997, so should be standard. smtpd and MTA came along in 2000 when postfix and exim were imported into powertools, so likely came from Simon Mudd (who did the original package before it was imported.) So... accident? server(smtp) was added in 2007 for https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=380621, as part of a Fedora proposed feature/packaging standard. I don't know that this standard was ever accepted - if it was, we should nuke the rest.
