Bug Description

After install, syslog has a number of messages stating that /etc/mailname does not exist, and postfix does not start. I manually populated the file, and postfix started OK.

It also prevents the charm to install without getting blocked.

I think this relied on lp:basenode setting up and installing that file.

It's probably worth just doing `uname -n > /etc/mailname` at an early stage of the charm, or overriding the `myorigin = /etc/mailname` in `/etc/postfix/main.cf`.
