So make sure you have a line like 1.2.3.4 mail.domain.tld mail in /etc/hosts. Be aware that Sendmail takes the first dotted hostname as its own. Alexander
I have following in my /etc/hosts =========== # Do not remove the following line, or various programs # that require network functionality will fail. 192.168.1.2 webcomp =========== if I check hostname and domainname it returns hostname is "webcomp" domainname is (none) hostname and domainname are both same in dynamic IP and static IP setting only IP is changed.
