Hi all. I'm configuring sendmail, and I want to confiure it to where
it will not include the hostname on the server I'm on when it sends a
mail to the relay.

Before: In my hosts file I have:
172.30.10.80 myHostname1_ce2 myHostname1 myHostname1_orb
myHostname1.myDomain.com myHostname1.

Before: In the /etc/mail/local-host-names file I have:
myDomain.com

Before: When I run the /usr/lib/mail/sh/check-hostname command I get:
Hostname utsocs1 OK: fully qualified as ocs1.onenet.an

Before: And when I test the mail, it comes from:
>>> MAIL From:

I understand all of that. The problem is when I remove the
"myHostname1" from the /etc/hosts file, everything else seems like it
should work, but doesn't. The ".com" is missing when I try to send the
mail and the mail relay rejects it.

After: In my hosts file I have:
172.30.10.80 myHostname1_ce2 myHostname1 myHostname1_orb
myDomain.com myHostname1.

After: In the /etc/mail/local-host-names file I have:
myDomain.com

After: When I run the /usr/lib/mail/sh/check-hostname command I get:
Hostname utsocs1 OK: fully qualified as myDomain.com

After: And when I test the mail, it comes from:
>>> MAIL From:

Any idea how I get around this????? It's driving me kind of crazy.

Thanks,
Ben..
