I have the following problem:

At our local computer pool mail will work properly, when it is given an
address of the form <user@local-host.local-net.net.country>. If however
the <local-host> is omitted, the mail will bounce with <host unknown>.

Is there any way I can fix that (without being supervisor)? If not, is
there a way to get around the problem by simply forcing the local mail
demon to send the mail to <somewhere> and let <somewhere> be bothered
with looking up addresses and delovering the mail correctly?

I'd appreciate answers, as it is a pain in the neck to be unable to
reply to people mailing.
