Sendmail 8.9.1 and dxmail.

Hi DU Admins

After I installed sendmail 8.9.1 all MH based mailers including
dxmail stopped sending mail. The error message is:

   post: problem initializing server; [RPLY] 553 <user>... Domain name required
   send: message not delivered to anyone

No doubt I could get this to work by configuring sendmail to
accept unqualified senders but I don't want to do that for
security reasons.

All other mailers work (mailx, pine, dtmail, netscape) it's only
the MH based mailers that have this problem.

I read the fine man page for MH, send and mh_profile but I couldn't
find a way to force it to add the domain to the sender's address.

Anyone know how to do this? Any other suggestions as to how
I can get this to work?


Thanks
Ian
