Well, unless you install postfix first, then system-switch-mail, then execute switch-mail, how does the stuff that needs sendmail know what to use? If you take out sendmail first, it removes other dependent stuff, but if you install postfix and the switch-mail util, when you remove sendmail it goes away without complaint.
