hai,

Use the full domain name. Get that from /etc/resolv.conf domain entry and use as

hostname.domainnames.

[[ $(hostname).$(cat /etc/resolv.conf | grep domain | awk '{ print $2 }') ]]

Use this entry in sendmail.sf as Dj entry.

Regards,
Muthukumar.

If you are not using DNS - make sure you have FQDN in /etc/hosts
