   I am typing this on riscpc.localdomain and my mailserver is sitting on
the same local network, but there is a local DNS A record pointer to it as
postman.mydomain (see the header on this email), it is configured as
postman.mydomain and it re-writes the "From: " header and gives the correct
"helo" response. It also has an alias as postman.localdomain so that
everything else just knows it as "postman".
