HP UX - Mail

Hi,

How do you set up a HPUX server to send mail ?

When I try and send mail and use the mailq -v -d command
getting the following ;

WARNING: local host name (XXXXX) is not qualified; see cf/README: WHO AM I?

Thanks in advance

What version of HP-UX are you running?

The warning I get looks like this on a new 11.23 box:

WARNING: local host name (servername) is not qualified; fix $j in config file
dropenvelope 40020620: id=<null>, flags=4001<OLDSTYLE,METOO>

You can configuration sendmail to run on HPUX:

hpux sendmail.1m
