Public bug reported:

Everytime my email server (Ubuntu Server 12.04) receives an email sent
from google.com (e.g. gmail) using TLS with the RC4-MD5 cipher, it
fails. Here is the output of once such interaction.

I have set smtpd_tls_loglevel=2 in /etc/postfix/main.cf in hopes this
will help.  Note that I have replaced my actual hostname with
'myhostname'
