Updated the description with link to the possible page of concern.
The serverguide for saucy doesn't have postfix.page. Has it been

This is only really a problem when you use the default wildcard address
for your MTA binds.
And it looks like there already is an option in postfix that allows you
to fix the outbound source address.

So perhaps its a configuration/documentation issue.

Postfix gets used in many different situations in Ubuntu since it is the
default MTA. In many of these cases, using the privacy extensions is
perfectly appropriate, so I don't think that making this change by
default is appropriate. For traditional MTA applications, I agree it
should be set and i
