Okay, I took a closer look. The problem is that my hostname is "tosh.0".
Somehow this makes something think that my hostname is numeric. Here's
the text:

Setting up postfix (2.7.0-1) ...

Postfix configuration was not changed.  If you need to make changes, edit
/etc/postfix/main.cf (and others) as needed.  To view Postfix configuration
values, see postconf(1).

After modifying main.cf, be sure to run '/etc/init.d/postfix reload'.

Running newaliases
newaliases: warning: valid_hostname: numeric hostname: 0
newaliases: fatal: file /etc/postfix/main.cf: parameter mydomain: bad parameter value: 0
