Please do not use html in your messages. I use a mail client that only
displays plain text, so all your html formatting just looks like
gobbledygook to me, and makes it very difficult to read.
That said...
I also use dhcp on my laptop. In this case, all you need to do is add
the line:
127.0.0.1 myhost.mydomain.com myhost
to your /etc/hosts file. The 127.0.0.1 IP address is assigned to
"localhost" by default, but it can also be given to your actual host
and domain name.
Your dhcp client daemon will also automatically add an entry with your
current IP address and host name. If you see it there, leave it. If
not, don't worry about it.
