[Bug 1490607] Re: Improve feedback of postfix systemd unit start failure

postfix only ships an init.d script, which makes it impossible to
capture any stdout/stderr into the journal (or rsyslog etc.). So this
would translate to "please ship a proper systemd unit".

However, this particular bug report  just shows that your file system
(or even hard disk) is seriously broken:
https://launchpadlibrarian.net/215975520/JournalErrors.txt shows tons of
errors, and amongst them some reasons for postfix:

Aug 31 08:03:42 hostname postfix/trivial-rewrite[22559]: fatal:
/etc/mailname: file has 2 hard links

Closing as this is not a problem with postfix but with a corrupted file
system.
