bugzilla package containts unecessary dependency on MTA (sendmail etc)

I vote for this to be fixed. After installing the Ubuntu package, on reboot, the system hangs around for the sendmail MTA to start. Removing sendmail removes Bugzilla as well. This is still here in Ubuntu 8.04. Pain...

Thanks for everything else though ;)
