The problem is that I am trying not to expose my netbios names to the internet ( security ) so whenever a smtp session is created I dont want my netbois name to be anywhere in the banner/header. eg my old NT4 server had the fqdn mail.artisansw.com but the netbios name was not mail
so basically the cname wouldnt work...
