Who lets you configure the correct domain you want it to use for email addresses in its config files, although I don't recall if you can tell it what to use for message-ids. Debian mutt will autoconfigure better, but that's it. That said, the canonical name is required by POSIX, but POSIX (looking at SuSv3) doesn't require it to be unique, doesn't give it any application usage notes, and in fact doesn't even require it to be a FQDN (which is, in fact a pratical requirement of the stuff that uses the canonical name). If you want proper message-ids, do it right and have a GUUID in it. If mutt depends on the result of gethostname() to be unique in the whole world to generate proper message-ids, it is broken. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
