In order to monitor /var/log/messages the hobbit user must be able to
read the file, which by default is only readable by root. You either
add hobbit to the root group, or what I usually do is make
/var/log/messages use the hobbit group id.
You also need to install the postfixadm package, see the apt-get man
page for details. This package is necessary to run the postfix mail
server.
