Public bug reported:

lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 16.10
Release:        16.10
Codename:       yakkety

Installing Postfix and Dovecot and setting them up as explained at
https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/postfix.html

Then setting all apparmor profiles including Postfix and Dovecot to
enforce mode.

Postfix fails to send a TLS protected email because Dovecot can't
connect to /var/spool/postfix/auth/private because when Dovecot's
apparmor profile is set to enforce mode, apparmor denies Dovecot access
to /var/spool/postfix/auth/private.
