According to 'postconf -d', myhostname is set to genex.localdomain where genex 
is an arbitrary name I chose for a hostname when I installed Debian Lenny.

When I look in /etc/postfix/main.cf,
myhostname = genex.example1.com

Is this a normal discrepancy?

Is it even neccessary to have a hostname at all since the days of having 
seperate machines for seperate daemons are behind us for most websites?  After 
all, mail.example1.com, www.example1.com, pop3.example1.com,... are all the 
same machine these days.
