!!! bug "Inheriting the bind from `main.cf` can misconfigure services"
One problem when setting `smtp_bind_address` in `main.cf` is that it will be inherited by any services in `master.cf` that extend the `smtp` transport. One of these is `smtp-amavis`, which is explicitly configured to listen / connect via loopback (localhost / `127.0.0.1`).

=== "Alternative (unverified)"
During review of the contribution, it was identified that a better solution might be to [explicitly set the `smtp_bind_address` override on the `smtp` transport service][gh-pr::3465] instead:
```title="postfix-master.cf"
smtp/inet/smtp_bind_address = 198.51.100.42
smtp/inet/smtp_bind_address6 = 2001:DB8::42
```
If that avoids the concern with `smtp-amavis`, you may still need to additionally override for the [`relay` transport][gh-src::postfix-master-cf::relay-transport] as well if you have configured DMS to relay mail.
