I tried the 2nd and 3rd option during my troubleshooting before my post,
reloaded the configuration and even bounced the service without anything
changing. The first option does not have the domain included and I am leery of
changing an OS file like /etc/hostname for fear of some application breaking
after the change.

The options are:
- Set a FQDN in /etc/hostname (or equivalent)
- Set a FQDN in main.cf:myhostname
- Set main.cf:mydomain
Postfix will not rely on DNS to figure out its domain name, because it must be
able to run when the network is down.

Postfix must be able to run on a disconnected machine, and therefore it cannot
use DNS to figure out the domain portion of
