Re: mail domain



Sorry if this is a rerun, I think the list rejected it the first time
because my email address was bad, which is sort of the point of this
thread.

I have a similar problem; when I run pine I get the message
   incomplete maildomain "annette"
   Return address in mail you send may be incorrect
Like you, my /etc/defaultdomain is correct and I created /etc/domainname,
and /cat/sys/kernel/domainname returned (none) so I changed it to
concordia.ca.

The only clue I have is that I think the problem started when I upgraded
using Hamm about a week ago.  I upgrade every few days, so if there was a
Hamm-related problem it was with a package that was updated last week.
But, then I would expect everyone to have the same problem, which would
have magically disappeared at the next update.
I can't think of any other reason why my domain name would suddenly be bad
after being fine for over a year.
