Hmmm I might have a solution for you but you didn't provide much
information. Just who is not recognizing it? The outside world?
Also, what is your mail setup?
I use my own sendmail for sending mail and pull mail off my ISP for
receiving. My hostname is linux1.bmarsh.com and since I don't allow DNS
queries to come in from the outside world, I had to change my sendmail.cf to
tell the world that I was just bmarsh.com. Sounds a little like your
problem.
# my official domain name
# ... define this only if sendmail cannot automatically determine your domain
Dj$w.bmarsh.com
Hope this helps.
