Do you have your domain names you want to use 'full names' with in
control/locals ?
Domains listed in locals will be treated as local only, so any mail you
create on the system will not go out smtp, rather be delievered by qmail
internally.
You also have to have the domain names in control/rcpthosts if you want
qmail to accept mail for that domain from smtp.
Sounds like you hosed up the control files to me.

Subject: Configuration problem
I have a mail server set on my machine. When I run a ./config , the qmail
script gives a hard error saying it could not find hosts name in canonical
form. So the next thing I do is so set up the control files manually
and
after which qmail starts working. My mail server host is buyerzone.com but
if
I have this as the line in the control/me file qmail fails to deliver
anything
anywhere. When I make this www.buyerzone.com , only it works. I dont
understand why this is happeneing. Also I can only send mails internally
using
the login ids and not the full addresses. Again this is what is confusing
me.
Any help in this would be helpful.
Thanx
Rohit
