Thanks for filing a bug in Ubuntu.

This is the error log:
Job for amavis.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status amavis.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
invoke-rc.d: initscript amavis, action "start" failed.

May 21 21:39:18 omkar6901 amavis[11343]: (failed).

The file /etc/amavis/conf.d/05-node_id wants to set a variable to the
output of the "hostname --fqdn" command, and it looks like in your case
that command is not returning a fully qualified name.

You should inspect your network configuration and hostname setting to
find out why you are not getting a fully qualified name back. I suggest
to look in /etc/hosts.

As this is a local configuration problem, I'll mark this bug as
"incomplete". If new information suggests that this is instead a
software defect, then please clarify with a comment and set the bug back
to the "new" state.

Thanks
