Actually, it is not true. You can send emails as is 
(root@body.forsally.zx like mine) or change /etc/hostname to domain of 
your email's address domaine (for example to name machine as 
'yahoo.com') and create user name as first part of your email address.

Why mail does not  use an address from /etc/mailname?
