Hi Folks,

I was helping troubleshoot an install of the latest OpenSMTPD from EPEL on 
CentOS 6 and I cannot get the service to start, it always gives this error:

Starting opensmtpd: invalid hostname: getaddrinfo() failed: Name or service 
not known

Normally the answer is to add the hostname to the '/etc/hosts' file for these 
types of errors.

This seems strange to me in this situation because I have never had to do this 
for OpenSMTPD before and in this instance it doesn't even fix the issue.

Kind Regards
