Thank mds, I changed the MAIL_DOMAIN in posixness.conf to match the one I
get inside the dhcp lease:

  option domain-name "cg.shawcable.net";

After a reboot, mailing works like a charm.  Should this DHCP option
domain-name be used by Dahcstein to set its domain (in
posixnes.conf:MAIL_DOMAIN and network.conf:DOMAINS) rather than using the
default private.network?

If so, would it be simple to automatically use this to set the relevant
domain variables?

Cheers,
Paul
