        Here is my "postconf -n" output.
(start)----------------------
alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/aliases
command_directory = /usr/sbin
daemon_directory = /usr/lib/postfix
debug_peer_level = 2
default_privs = nobody
delay_warning_time = 4
mail_owner = postfix
mail_spool_directory = /var/spool/mail
mailbox_command = /usr/bin/procmail -Y -a $DOMAIN
mydomain = patriot.net
myhostname = alanmcc
myorigin = $mydomain
queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix
smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP $mail_name ($mail_version) (Mandrake Linux)

                            --------------------------------(finish)
NB: I have since, following the objections of the postfix program on
bootup, changed "myhostname" in /etc/postfix/main.cf, to
"alanmcc.patriot.net". It does not help local E-mail to go through; indeed
it seems to have no effect that I can discern . . .

I should note that this message will likely not go to
        wietseporcupine.org
since, evidently, porcupine.org doesn't like to receive E-mail from
an dynamically allocated address(at least that is my present diagnosis of
the problem). I wish this behavior could be changed in postfix; it was
not a problem when I ran qmail.

        Mr Venema, do you really think this slam was justified?
