Installing a new suse15.5 (using lxc with fingerprint d36482cdb85c)

If I edit the /etc/postfix/main.cf adding somethig like

relayhost = 10.151.156.1
myhostname = carige.xyz

And than I do

systemctl start postfix.service

it is mangled and became this

relayhost = 
myhostname = carigexyz

o.O

If I start instead with 

postfix start

It will warn of overriding 
/usr/sbin/postconf: warning: /etc/postfix/main.cf, line 843: overriding earlier entry: relayhost=
/usr/sbin/postconf: warning: /etc/postfix/main.cf, line 844: overriding earlier entry: myhostname=localhost

but else will not touch the config...

There are other element of the config file that got altered, but those do not incur on any problem.
