Public bug reported:

I have opensmtpd installed on my desktop PC so as to get emails from
cron etc.

Since I upgraded to Xubuntu 18.04, opensmtpd won't start on bootup.

systemctl status opensmtpd shows:

● opensmtpd.service - OpenSMTPD SMTP server
   Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/opensmtpd.service; enabled; vendor 
preset: enabled)
   Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Wed 2018-05-23 12:25:22 NZST; 10min

enp3s0 is definitely a valid interface; the only thing I can think of is that 
it hasn't been defined at the time opensmtpd tries to start.

I can start opensmtpd manually once I've logged in.
