Actually I think it's a lookup kind of thing and not the client appending.
Pinging "mail" should return the full name, and the IP.  He could try both
in YAM.  I just did it on a clone connected to @home and got "Pinging
femail.sdc1.sfba.home.com [24.0.95.85]"

I would recommend pinging mail, and trying the IP address that is returned.
If that dosen't work, have to look for something else.
