Remove the CNAME record and make it an A or an MX record. That's what's causing
the rewriting of the host name.

You have aquinas.pp.asu.edu in both locals and virtualdomains. Having a domain
in both files is always a mistake. To fix your problem, get rid of the CNAME,
and add hdshc.asu.edu to virtualdomains and remove it from locals.
