I have 2 interfaces on the mail server... the following IP addr:

> > May 29 22:35:04 freebsd-1 sendmail[928]: gethostbyaddr(10.10.209.143)
> > failed: 1

is for an interface that is not being used. The other interface is up and
DNS is correctly setup (so I believe.) When I bring the interface down, that
message quits appearing.
