Well...
Postfix supposes a properly configured network underneath, and for years
on end I have been teaching that the best oil for any IP network is a
properly configured name resolution, be it /etc/hosts (difficult to
scale) or DNS. If you have a network of a few hosts your problem is
easily solved by a few lines in /etc/hosts. If it is a big one, your are
only asking for trouble refusing to configure local DNS service.

To me that is easier thn giving newbees another opportunity to shoot
themselves on their feet.
