First, I would like to congratulate the ubuntu dev team for this great
distro ...

I would like to suggest a feature about network profiles ...

I use Ubuntu on a laptop in three different place with three different
network setup :
	ip address : ok
	gateway : ok
	dns : ok
	smtp server : not ok

So to be sure to be able to send mail using my 5 different e-mail
address, I use the postfix server on my laptop. It works fine 95% of
times. But sometimes (AOL users for instance) reject my mail because I
am not using a well known smtp server.

So, It would be nice to have in the network profile setup the ability to
tell postfix which server to use as a relay server for each profile
entry ... Does it make sense to the ubuntu network gurus ?

A ciao,
Olivier.
