If you don't need sendmail go
to /etc/rc.config.d/mailservs,
put SENDMAIL_SERVER=0.

If you need however sendmail than in addition
to "." after hostname in /etc/hosts there
should also be in /etc/mail/sendmail.conf
like : Dj$w. (with ".").
Also "O TryNullMXlist" is suggested in the same file./etc/nsswitch.conf should go to "hosts: files dns...".

Is this problem happening recently ? Have you configure any thing new for system monitoring, like EDN or Openview etc ?

Other than /etc/host entry, check your domain is registered and a Mx record exists.
