Two Domains for Mail

Temporarily my system belongs to two Internet-Domains. And I want
to receive mails trough the addresses in both domains. How can this
be done?

(As mainly VMS-based) I am not so familiar with D-Unix. What I tried
    - Edit hostname.m4
    # make -f Makefile.cf.hostname:
    # cp hostname.cf sendmail.cf
    # /sbin/init.d/sendmail restart

But I am not sure what all to edit in hostname.m4. I did
    define(_MyDomain, ({x,y})
    and
    define(_ParentDomain, ({x,y})
    This worked and gave in sendmail.cf
    # parent domain
    DPth-darmstadt.de,tu-darmstadt.de
    # my domain
    DNikp.physik.th-darmstadt.de,ikp.physik.tu-darmstadt.de

(sendmail restart)

But when I sent mail to that node through the second, new domain
(ikp.physik.tu-darmstadt.de) the mailer-daemon refused
"533 local configuration error, hostname not recognized as local"
(The old address fortunately still works...)

Any idea what I did wrong, forgot or what else do I have to do...?

Regards
Otto
