Hyphen is not the issue. Issue is non-fqdn hostname, I'd guess.
Documentation is very clear, it advices against dns names.
Please read this part of documentation carefully and please, don't use
dns name in config.

Nope, it's definitely the hyphen. I changed one of the "rules" lines to:
SMTP/DNAT net loc:int-mailserver.locnet.philpem.me.uk
And got a very similar error:
shorewall[2924742]: ERROR: Invalid IP Address (int)
/usr/share/shorewall/macro.SMTP (line 12)
shorewall[2924742]: from /etc/shorewall/rules (line 84)
Note that in the error, only the part of the FQDN before the hyphen is
shown: Shorewall is trying to resolve "int", which doesn't exist.
I've read the documentation and am aware of its limitations.
I only use this feature for hostnames on my own local LAN, defined in
the router's /etc/hosts (they're served with dnsmasq). Life is just
easier when everything is in one place.
Thanks.
