QUICKSTART missing DB_HOST #8

Description

From: markmnl/fmsg#16

I followed the steps in the quick-start guide, but kept running into the following error

2026/04/26 18:14:06 ERROR: connecting to database: dial tcp: lookup postgres on 8.8.8.8:53: dial udp 8.8.8.8:53: connect: network is unreachable

I was able to overcome this by defining adding the following to my .env file (missing from the .env.example):

DB_HOST=postgres

The host machine has a fresh install of Debian 13 (no DE).
