Thank you for your reply. But, it is already set as you told.
I installed CentOS to a formatted hard disk but used the same conf files
for postfix, amavisd-new, cyrus-imapd, /etc/aliases from the previous
setup. Somehow, mail system gets the "server name" as the "domain name"
for the internal messages.
[root at server ~]# uname -n
server.example.com
[root at server ~]# hostname -d
example.com
[root at server ~]# hostname -f
server.example.com
[root at server ~]# hostname
server.example.com
It looks names are configured correctly. I am stumped!
