We have an "out of the box" sendmail.cf for ultrix.

The problem is that mail to leach@zeus.franklin.edu gets through fine,
but if the hostname is left off the mail is returned as undeliverable.
ie
	leach@franklin.edu
is returned with the message " I refuse to talk to myself " or somethng
similar.

All that I have done is define the D macro as franklin.edu

our hostname is zeus.franklin.edu
and its aliased as  zeus zeus.franklin.edu franklin.edu in /etc/hosts

I have talked to digital, but so far there has been no solution.

Thanks,
Greg Leach
