It is not that easy just too look at ports. I give you three examples from work: 1. Zabbix (network monitoring), suppports only SMTP, although PHP supports sendmail(8) 2. JavaMail Transport implementation exists only for SMTP, I was not able to find any transport implementation for sendmail(8). Maybe I will write one for fun. 3. Python mail package supports SMTP only, no other package available, at least AFAIK. Unless ecosystems provide impls for sendmail(8) I see it very hard to live without localhost:25 for many cases.
