Why not just print a big message on standard output at the end of
"make install" (or also at the beginning), like for example:
"Attention: the default value of send-mail-function is now smtp.
If you want emacs to make use of your local MTA, then please change
line X in file Y."
`make install' produces lots of output; people are likely not to read
it closely.
To make this solution work, it would be necessary to make this
message stand out so people would notice it.
