First reaction.
Try putting your fully-qualified host name in /etc/hosts on the same line as the existing line containing the IP address for this computer. Just separate the unqualified name and the qualified name with a space character.
Your fully-qualified host name will be of the form machinename@domain.com.
Ps. Please always post what Operating System and version you are running (avoiding vague term such as "unix" and "Linux"). There are umpteen different ones.
