I'm in agreement with Scott; if your system can't resolve 'localhost' then its probably going to have a number of other issues as well.
The Ubuntu Server guide has some helpful advice on network configuration that might help you out: https://help.ubuntu.com/11.10/serverguide/C/network-configuration.html Marking this bug as 'Invalid' as the consensus is that guaranteed resolution of localhost is not unreasonable. ** Changed in: postfix (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/948320 Title: main.cf should not refer to localhost To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/postfix/+bug/948320/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
