It seems to me that domain names should get the same treatment whether they're partial domain names or full hostnames -- I initially thought someone had just forgotten the tages around example.com <para>This is a list of hostnames &man.sendmail.8; is to accept as the local host name. Place any domains or hosts that <application>sendmail</application> is to be receiving mail for. For example, if this mail server was to accept mail for the domain example.com and the host <hostid>mail.example.com</hostid>, its <filename>local-host-names</filename> might look something like this:</para> >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: 1) Change <hostid> tags to <domainname> tags, and use this for both, OR 2) Create a new similar <domainname> tag and use this for non-hostid domain names (which seems overly complicated) >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
