Your "true" DNS name is what is being asked for here. You have it right in
your 3rd and 4th paragraph.

Subject: [IMail Forum] setup on Win2000 ?'s
Just got Imail server and had a quick question in regards to setting it up
on Win2000.
The manual still seems targeted at WinNT, and I had a question during
initial setup when it refers to the "Official Host Name" - my Win2000 box
isn't part of a 'domain' so all it has is a Workgroup machine name.
So do I enter the machine name here (which doesn't seem right to me) or
enter the true domain name which the DNS records will be pointing to anyway:
"mydomainname.com".
Then would I setup an alias which points to "mail.mydomainname.com" or do
that in the DNS records themselves?
Thanks in advance! This is my first foray into email and I don't want to
screw anything up! :)
Jim
