Your domain is not set correctly, or you set it to athome.net. Sendmail is
just trying to deliver the email. Normally you don't need the domain to
send to root. As long as you have root defined in /etc/mail/aliases you
should be able to send to just root.
@reboot /bin/echo "reboot" |/usr/bin/mail -s "start-up at `date`" root

All my log reports, et cetera are stuck in mqueue.
Example -- for years, the following line has been in root's crontab:
(sorry if folded)
@reboot /bin/echo "reboot" |/usr/bin/mail -s "start-up at `date`"
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
It has worked without any problems delivering an email indicating start-up
time.
Now... Well, here's some lines from the 'mqueue' file:
H??Received: from zebra.athome.net (localhost.athome.net [127.0.0.1])

It seems that my local network name of "athome.net" is being "evaluated."

It's been around since 1999, but was updated yesterday.
I'm assuming I did something wrong years back in my 'sendmail' setup. At
this point, I certainly don't remember the whys & hows of what I did!
Could someone *please* help?
Thanks! V
