Package: postfix Version: 2.7.1-1+squeeze1 Severity: normal
myhostname cannot be set to /etc/mailname, and with Debian's preference for short names in /etc/hostname, Postfix doesn't default to using the correct FQDN for my typical case. It would be preferable to have /etc/mailname be a viable option for myhostname. Right now doing this results in this: postfix: warning: valid_hostname: invalid character 47(decimal): /etc/mailname Thanks! -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.6 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages postfix depends on: ii adduser 3.112+nmu2 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.36.1 Debian configuration management sy ii dpkg 1.15.8.13 Debian package management system ii libc6 2.11.3-4 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libdb4.8 4.8.30-2 Berkeley v4.8 Database Libraries [ ii libsasl2-2 2.1.23.dfsg1-7 Cyrus SASL - authentication abstra ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8o-4squeeze13 SSL shared libraries ii lsb-base 3.2-23.2squeeze1 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii netbase 4.45 Basic TCP/IP networking system ii ssl-cert 1.0.28 simple debconf wrapper for OpenSSL Versions of packages postfix recommends: ii python 2.6.6-3+squeeze7 interactive high-level object-orie Versions of packages postfix suggests: ii bsd-mailx [mail-re 8.1.2-0.20100314cvs-1 simple mail user agent ii emacs [mail-reader 23.2+1-7 The GNU Emacs editor (metapackage) ii emacs23 [mail-read 23.2+1-7 The GNU Emacs editor (with GTK+ us ii libsasl2-modules 2.1.23.dfsg1-7 Cyrus SASL - pluggable authenticat ii mutt [mail-reader] 1.5.20-9+squeeze2 text-based mailreader supporting M pn postfix-cdb <none> (no description available) pn postfix-ldap <none> (no description available) pn postfix-mysql <none> (no description available) pn postfix-pcre <none> (no description available) pn postfix-pgsql <none> (no description available) ii procmail 3.22-19 Versatile e-mail processor pn resolvconf <none> (no description available) pn sasl2-bin <none> (no description available) pn ufw <none> (no description available) -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
