Title:
  postfix during desktop dist-upgrade, presented with post-fix config
  window

Status in postfix package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  While upgrading from 10.04 to Maverick Beta (10.10) on a desktop, I was presented with a requirement to configure postfix.  I believe that:
   1. this shouldn't happen, and
   2. If for some reason it is necessary, then it needs to be better explained/presented.  Most users won't know what postfix is, or how to configure it, and there are only "forward" and "back" options (i.e,. no option to cancel).  Technical users will feel confident clicking through, but I think most users will be confused/scared by it.
