[Mailman-Users] Mailman 2.1.5 - FQDN Question

[Cogley, Rick]

Interesting. That may well be the source of some wonky behavior, Steve and
thanks.  

My /etc/hosts has one line: 

200.100.10.1 rcogley.myispsdomain.com rcogley localhost

... Which man says is [IP, fqdn, alias, alias]

I have another domain I am hosting mail for on the machine, and postfix
sends out from root@ from this domain. 
Also, I have another IP as well. 

Can I just add to this file so it looks like: 

200.100.10.1 rcogley.myispsdomain.com rcogley localhost
200.100.10.1 www.domainofmine.net www

?

(and I thought having this schtuff in DNS was enough...)

Best Regards,
Rick

To which I reply:

Just a wild-assed guess here, but what's your /etc/hosts look like?  Does it
have an entry for your the FQDN of your server, with its external IP
address?  I've stumbled over, or been bitten by, the localhost.localdomain
stuff on a bunch of red hat / fedora machines where /etc/hosts only has info
for the loopback interface.
