With some versions, the "Reply-To:" address in web messaging will default to the Official Host Name of the IMail server
(in which case "example.com" is better than "mail.example.com"). In recent versions, the OHN will be used in web messaging URLs, in which case you would have to use "mail.example.com" (unless the A record for example.com pointed to the mailserver, which is rare).
I'm not aware of any other uses for the Official Host Name within IMail,
It's used as the default envelope @sender.domain, your mail out is
MAIL FROM: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
(with fatal implications for DNS and MX records)
rather than the usual preference of:
MAIL FROM: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
so the reply-to (not only in web messaging) is set to that also.
And the MS Networking "machine/netbios name" has nothing at all, at least directly, to do with Imail domains, and tcp/ip networking and tcp/ip domains (ie, DNS).
