Nope.   The NetBIOS name does not need to be the same as the DNS hostname.

Should I have the host name in IMail be the same as the NetBIOS name?

I changed the server for IMail earlier this year.  The old server was 
named 'mail', and I named the new one 'rmcmail'.  I kept the DNS info 
the same, and did not change the NetBIOS name.

I created an DNS alias in my internal zone for 'mail' to 'rmcmail' and I 
added the full name of the server to the host aliases in IAdmin.

Anything else?
