Nice.  Cool.

Sendmail uses /etc/mail/service.switch -

hosts   files
aliases files

that'll turn off dns lookups for local.

If you add anything to /etc/mail/local-host-names, then HUP sendmail.

and what you need to look for is 

suresh (13:34:22 <~>) $ grep Fw /etc/mail/sendmail.cf
Fw-o /etc/mail/local-host-names

        -srs

LOST #298        -**< Sub : LILO on boot sector of root partition >**-
Placing LILO on root partition instead of MBR maybe needed for
a dual boot system where the other OS is at MBR.After checking
/etc/lilo.conf, do: '#lilo -v -v -C /etc/lilo.conf -r /' .. If
/boot is the bootable partition change / to /boot.
