Re: domain name of debian
"domainname" will display it.
"domainname my.domain" will set it.
Question is, what does this mean. I would like email sent to user@my.domain to
be delivered to the user mailbox. If I do this with an exim4 "mail" command
(I had routers set), this may work. If I send such email through "outside"
providers, this will not work.
