Sigh...that's what also Sendmail wants from me too...
But what if you don't have a publicly accessible network, so that a
domain name would be pure fantasy? Shall I choose a domain arbitrarily?
Note that I _love_ calling my computers by first name: "This is Bacchus,
the God of Wine, and this is Midas, the King that everything he touched
became gold, and here we have Pan, the flute Satyr, and there you see
Nymphe sleeping..." ;-) (taken from Poussin's "Bacchus and Midas",
which hangs here on the wall...).
How can one be so cruel to say "This is [EMAIL PROTECTED]"? :-) :-)
I ended up using a "." ("bacchus.", instead of "bacchus"). This has kept
AMANDA, Sendmail and me quiet for some time now.
