It seems that sendmail either works flawlessly or it starts exhibiting
bizarro behavior here.  I have a real basic setup which is a dialup
connection via a modem with only one system.  My /etc/hosts file is:

127.0.0.1       localhost
207.167.85.183  mperry.basin.com        mperry

My resolv.conf is

domain znet.com
nameserver 207.167.67.1
nameserver 207.167.80.19

Thats it.  Now when I attempt to use localhost smtp, sendmail queues
every last piece of email I sent with host name deferred lookup and I
have to force a send with sendmail -q.  I have the default sendmail
installed and working with the switch -bd -q30m -om.  If I remove the
word "localhost" from pine and use no default value and remove it from
tkrat, all email goes out immediately. 

Does this seem strange to anyone or is this some sort of sendmail
feature?
