I'd like to get your comments on how to improve this current
setup to serve as our reference for future implementations.

# Current IMail configuration:

Virtual Host: domainA.com

Official Host Name: domainA.com

IP Address: 192.10.11.12

Host Aliases: mail.domainA.com 
              domainB.com 
              mail.domainB.com


# DNS Records shows:

domainA.com
   MX   mail.domainA.com
   A    192.10.11.12

domainB.com
   MX   mail.domainA.com

PTR lookup for 192.10.11.12 showed: name = domainA.com

* note than domainB.com was used as a host alias for domainA.com

Currently [EMAIL PROTECTED] can send and receive emails. 
Email sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] is also received by [EMAIL PROTECTED] 

Right now it's working fine, but as a reference for future
implementations do I need to change the Official Host Name to a 
FQDN and also update the PTR record and map to a FQDN likewise?

Which will then show:
Official Host Name: 
   mail.domainA.com
PTR lookup for 192.10.11.12 would show: 
   name = mail.domainA.com  

And is it also acceptable to have a different domain name on the 
Host Aliases just like the case above wherein [EMAIL PROTECTED] may
receive mails sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED]?

Thanks,
Gary
