Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: debian-installer

When the Dapper installer asks for a host name, it does not specify it
needs to have the domain name. Worse, it even suggests a name with no
domain. So I entered that wrong and after installing postfix (as local
MTA because my ISP doesn't have one), got blacklisted because my HELO
was wrong.

Suggested fix: Just let people know that the hostname has to have the
domain name as well.

** Affects: debian-installer (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Untriaged
