[Bug 1519331] Re: Postfix cannot resolve DNS if network was unavailable when it was started, such as on a laptop

[Robie Basak]

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.

Importance -> Low since this doesn't affect the primary use of Postfix
as a server MTA, but only with network-manager on a desktop machine.

FWIW, I use msmtp. I can't queue mails when offline, but otherwise it
works fine for me.

It might be worth checking what the situation is on Debian for this use
case. There may be a valid bug in Debian as well, and it would be better
to follow what Debian do in this case I think.

** Summary changed:

- Mail delivery fails until restarting postfix
+ Postfix cannot resolve DNS if network was unavailable when it was started, such as on a laptop

** Changed in: postfix (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => Low
