I am looking at going with the flow that a notebook should not need an MTA
Any MTA for just one user will do. You won't even notice that it's there. System load and the ability to handle a lot of connections is not relevant in this case.
I will continue to use mutt, for a while, but look at configuring thunderbird to read in the local mail. I suppose, to follow through, I really should figure out how evolution can do this, but I always uninstall it.
I've never found anything better than mutt, in all those years..
