We need to find a solution here so that the desktop user can install printer drivers and modern desktop applications (they both do not send local e-mail) without getting questions asked.

Why does one not distinguish between a server and a desktop. On a server one installs postfix as it is now and on a desktop one either installs postfix non-interactively (local-only configuration) or ssmtp.

We need the possibility to easily drop applications and printer drivers on a modern desktop machine, which is usually connected to the Internet via a NAT router (which has a dynamic IP into the internet and gives IPs to the local network vis DHCP or Zeroconf) and sending mail is mamaged by an external service on the internet.
