I have a problem with a vanlia 6.3/6.4 install that any mail generated
gets an extra top level domain appended to the domain.
=20
This is causing mail delivery failures and much frustration.

Here is my box....
MATDAV# uname -a
FreeBSD MATDAV.datacom.net.nz 6.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 6.3-RELEASE #0: Wed

root@dessler.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  i386

Say for example I used the mail shell script...
MATDAV# mail -s TESTING someone@datacom.co.nz
this is a test

Is seems that something (sendmail?) is appended an extra TLD '.net.nz'
on the EVELOPE-FROM field.

If I rebuild the box using 6.1 it works no problem at all.

Anyone know of and previous post regarding this?

Any advice would be much appreciated.
