Google does though. Search for 'postfix domain change'. You're  
probably going to be most interested in mydomain, myhostname and  
perhaps myorigin.

Yup, I'd reject that too. cna.localhost isn't a valid hostname or  
domain.

Yes, the install guide has to assume that the MTA packages and  
configuration for whatever system you are using are sane. It's your  
responsibility to make sure they are. Doing that is beyond the scope  
of nagios.
