Is it good measure to add it to the hosts file anyway or is this a waste of time? I guess my understanding of the host file is clouded.
Yes, waste of time. It's all in how you've configured postfix to handle it. The default is to the FQDN of the server, but I'd suggest you change accordingly (ie: myhostname).
