I don't recall having to do anything special for this. With my Postfix configuration, this is the default bit - the host would be host.mydomain.com, my email address would be [EMAIL PROTECTED] - as long as the MX records point to host.mydomain.com.
That said though, I did have some issues with Sendmail - if I sent mail from the server to an external address (i.e. not my domain), I would see the sender's address as "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" instead of the more usual "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". I did see a reference to this in one of the How-To's or FAQs though, so I believe it's just a config setting to change it. Not much help I know, but should point you in the general direction (I hope)...

Currently the dyndns domain that I have has a hostname and domain name, so the server is setup so that the smtp and pop3s server addresses as well as all the e-mail addresses have the hostname and domain. When transferring a custom domain I would want the smtp and pop3s server addresses to be mail.domain.com but have the e-mail addresses to be @domain.com. My question is how I would go about doing this. Would I just add mail.domain.com to the /etc/hosts file and domain.com to the /etc/mail/relay-hosts file? Also if I wanted to do this would I have to add additional MX records to the domain? Thank you, Jesse -- Jesse Kline, RHCT http://www3.telus.net/public/klinej/resume.html
