Well, IMHO at least there could be a configuration parameter that
allows me to choose between a service that kills itself and some
errors on a logfile and maybe a temporary service failure.
Each SysAdmin could weight the consequences and choose the option
he/she thinks is more appropriate to his/her server.
Accurate time is CRITICAL for a mail server (and most any other server
as well).
I think the current behavior is reasonable. Fix the actual problem
(server time being incorrect at boot time), and this is not an issue.
