[Bug 1089342] Re: Postfix uses temporary IPv6 address for outbound connections

Postfix gets used in many different situations in Ubuntu since it is the
default MTA.  In many of these cases, using the privacy extensions is
perfectly appropriate, so I don't think that making this change by
default is appropriate.  For traditional MTA applications, I agree it
should be set and it might be nice to provide this as a configuration
option (I did get burned by this too the first time I set up postfix on
an IPv6 connected host).
