here 'localhost' should map to 10.1.1.2 (again
via /etc/hosts, for now), so it should not
clash with the host (as the guest is not supposed
to ahve 127.0.0.1 at all)

same here, but for 10.1.1.3

yep, that's exactly what happens

as mentioned before, the 'localhost' mapping in
/etc/hosts should handle that, given that the
postfix config uses 'localhost' and not the
hardcoded 127.0.0.1 (which would require some
adjustment then)
nevertheless, as this seems to be the main
issue folks encounter with the network isolation
(and the number of broken and/or proprietary tools
increases) we will address this in the near future
(by adding some kind of user transparent workaround)
