HMM! Interesting point! No, I don't want mail for root@localhost to get
sent to my ISP. In that case, should I change my hostname? Or is there
a way to prevent it from routing to my ISP?
My etc/hosts now looks like this:
127.0.0.1 hotstuff.bc.hsia.telus.net localhost loopback hotstuff
192.168.43.1 hotstuff.bc.hsia.telus.net hotstuff

I have a Dynamic IP through my ISP - should I have (or need) the second
line?
