sendmail is adding hostname to recipient domain?
I've recently configured sendmail on a RedHat Enterprise 3.0 box, and all is working well except for this annoying issue with sendmail.
This transcript should illustrate the issue; it's a bounced email that I tried to send to my email from the box (I'm trying to send from "mydomain" (obviously not my real domain; I edited the transcript) to lagnaf@telusplanet.net (another real email address). As you can see, it's adding "webmark01" (the hostname) to "telusplanet.net":

Any ideas? I'm baffled.
Thanks in advance!
