Bug Description

If I run the openstack ansible-hardening role with RHEL7stig on a machine with no MTA installed, the package install of aide-common installs and configures postfix as a default dependency. When configured in noninteractive mode, postfix includes an open socket such that it listens on all interfaces:

> netstat -plant
> Proto Recv-Q Send-Q LocalAddress Foreign Address State Program Name
> tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:25 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN master
