To fix this, set a FQDN in myhostname first. Then, fix whatever fed the sendmail command to use a fully qualified address instead of just the user. (the -f switch, 'man 1 sendmail') Postfix will append myorigin to non-qualified addresses. Use 'postconf myorigin' to see what that currently is. Brian
