Re: Machine names in message headers
Check the Hostname of the machine itself..

Re: Machine names in message headers
John, Try reading the man page for qmail-control and qmail-inject. I suspect that some of your qmail control files still reference the original hostname of the machine, and not the current hostname.

Qmail pulls the machine name from the machine not from DNS Got it - I think when I put the machine together and installed qmail-scanner, it used the current machine name (pluto2001) and hardcoded it into qmail-scanner-queue.pl - so I've edited that and it works OK.. Thanks all John
