Tracking woody upgraded postfix today, and its postinst went
right into reconfiguration (asking me what kind of email site I
was running, etc) and broke my setup.

Hi *,
today I upgraded my debian box to 2.2r3. Postfix was replaced
with a newer version and 'til then I can't send emails and I am
getting this error msg in syslogd and mail.log:
