Looks like your config is broken from a previous apt-get run.

This is not really an error, but a warning message. Your clock is
probably skewed, try date.

This is the first error. Something is broken with your hostname lshih.
I know nothing about postfix, you might want to ask what to do on
debian-user.

You see, postfix is a MTA (mail transport agent) and the other three
packages you want to set up (mutt, elm-me+, vm) need an MTA to work
properly. Because postfix is not configured properly, they stop
working.

This is funny, because there is no real error message here. Try dpkg
--configure lprng and see what it does.

kword is actually configured properly. You should be able to use it
without problems.
