Thanks for the fast response. I really should have tried 'apt-get'
before filing.

$ sudo apt-get -s install postfix
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Suggested packages:
  procmail postfix-mysql postfix-pgsql postfix-ldap postfix-pcre sasl2-bin
Recommended packages:
  mail-reader resolvconf
The following NEW packages will be installed
  postfix
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Inst postfix (2.2.10-1ubuntu0.1 Ubuntu:6.06/dapper-security)
Conf postfix (2.2.10-1ubuntu0.1 Ubuntu:6.06/dapper-security)

Looks good as a quick fix. Is aptitude being more aggressive and
including the 'mail-reader' package for some reason?

I believe that aptitude is the preferred method for installing
packages (on Debian and Ubuntu) and this makes me more than a little
worried about other packages I have installed and may install in
future.

Regards.
