When you told tasksel to remove Standard system, it removed exim4. Many packages depend on exim4 | mail-transport-agent, and apparently one was installed during the same aptitude run. So, aptitude, having just been told to remove exim4, is forced to satisfy that dependency by picking a mail-transport-agent providing package at random. -- see shy jo
