That was a copy/paste error into email, not what I actually tried :D

This *sort-of* worked: systemd-networkd-wait-online took about two
minutes before it failed with a timeout. However, that was long enough
to hold back network-online.target, and by extension sendmail.service,
so that the latter found the transient hostname already configured...

systemd-networkd.service is `active`, so I'm somewhat puzzled as to why
systemd-networkd-wait-online timed out instead of succeeding.

But this is progress, so thank you for the hint!

I might still open a bug against sendmail -- since it *claims* to plan
on retrying when it logs:

        fedora sendmail[826]: My unqualified host name (fedora) unknown;
        sleeping for retry

when started up without the above workaround.
If it did indeed retry *properly*, none of this would be needed... :)

Thanks,
