Set your hostname to one of the names you've got entered in your hosts file, one that's appropriate to your box, and one that's a fixed address (i.e. one that can't be dynamically changed by a DHCP server). -- (Currently running FC4, in case that's important to the thread) Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
