There is a control file intended exactly for this purpose: the "qualify" file. This file enumerates the domains with which bare hostnames should be qualified. For example, here is ours: tct tct.com animal tct.com count tct.com gonzo tct.com grouch tct.com * uucp With this file, all addresses of the form "x@y", where "y" is one of "tct", "animal", "count", "gonzo", or "grouch", is transformed to "x@y.tct.com". The wildcard entry at the bottom arranges for all other hostnames to be qualified as "x@y.uucp". -- Chip Salzenberg at Teltronics/TCT , perl -e 'sub do { print "extinct!\n"; } do do()'
