I've had some very strange problems related to mail and name service
subsequent to an update from Ubuntu's 3.2.0-58-generic x86_64 kernel to
the 3.2.0-59 and am trying figure out what's going on.  I had to back
out the kernel update to get everything working.

Has anyone else had, or has anyone else reported problems?  These may
show up as courieresmtp refusing to respond on the localhost IF.  I had
immediate problems with the Mailman list server which stopped feeding 
list posts to courier for distribution to subscribers, and I've had one
customer tell me that someone he knows got a NDR related to one of his
email addresses which is a courier alias redirection.  I haven't yet
seen the NDR.  Both of these involve courier responding on the localhost
interface.  I likewise had a problem with bind9 on the same server which
stopped responding to queries from a VPN IF and also via the localhost
IF on the box unless I had an explicit IPv4 interface ACL in the bind9
config.  This was NOT an issue under previous Linux kernels.
