Guess: This because the DNS of the network isn't configured
or not configured in the correct way. First of all the
system requires a name (normally without any domain name
part). Then the system requires for each network a Full
Qualified Domain Name (please note that the former name
can be part of the FQDN but can also an other host name
and can also be different for each network). At last
the YP domain name has nothing todo with the DNS domain
name even if normally identical for practial reasons.
If postfix or sendmail do not know about the FQDN of the
networks accessible then it have to be configured. This
can be done by using a DNS server of the appropiate network
or within the configuration of postfix or sendmail.
