Either way should work.  localhost is fine as long as any firewall rules
or tcp_wrappers rules allow postfix to contact ldap at localhost (and ldap
is listening at localhost).  If routing is working correctly, internal
traffic to the external interface will be routed to the loopback interface
anyway.  Using localhost has the advantage of making the configuration
file more portable if you have several computers configured the same way.
