Your mail server was probably using the unresolvable domain name
"localhost.localdomain" for outgoing mail. No properly-configured mail
server should be accepting mail from unresolvable domain, so it's likely
that all you need to do is to get your server to use a real domain name,
even if it's something like blah-12.34.56.78-isp.net.
