Ok, read the following :

Your MTA postfix refuse to start because your hostname is not resolved
correctly. If it's not a valid hostname (i mean resolved by dns). You
can add a line in /etc/hosts with your ip address and your hostname.
If you are in trouble with mailer configuration, i suggest you to
deliver your mail locally with procmail. Here is what my ~/.fetchmailrc
looks :
------ cut here ---------
set daemon 60
poll pop
protocol POP3
username your_user_name_on_pop_server
password your_password_on_pop_server
mda "/usr/bin/procmail -d %s"
------ end cut ---------
With the following ~/.procmailrc, all your mail will be delivered to
~/Mail/inbox :
------ cut here ---------
:0:
* ^From.*
{
:0
Mail/inbox
}
------ end cut ---------
