Package: dovecot-common
Version: 1:1.0.15-2.3+lenny1
Severity: normal

The "hostname -f" command in the postinst will fail if /etc/hosts doesn't have
a line such as "127.0.1.1       lenny-smtp.example.com lenny-smtp" (where the
output of "hostname" is "lenny-smtp").

Generally everything should work without any /etc/hosts entries other than
localhost.

When /etc/mailname exists then it seems reasonable to make the following
default:
FQDN=`hostname`.`cat /etc/mailname`

In any case, for an unsigned certificate as will be used in the vast majority
of cases (the postinst doesn't create a CSR) it doesn't matter much if the
name is wrong.
