that name, when i installed my server at the hostname i entered centos-server.mydomain.com when i tried to send an email from the root console with

# mail root

the email is returned saying that

root@centos-server.mydomain.com, could not be verified

i used the command # hostname ns1.mydomain.com and also edited the file.

/etc/hosts, but i have the same result, the hostname did not change, i even restart my server with no luck. what am I missing? regards, Guillermo. PS my server is a CentOS 4.4, with postfix Guillermo Garron

The hostname is stored in /etc/sysconfig/network and when you are dealing with postfix there is a line in the /etc/postfix/main.cf file that needs to be edited that starts with myorigin=
