I have registered a domain name through www.gradwell.com, and paid for
web/email forwarding. So it seems appropriate to rename my network to
match. I forsee some difficulties with mail transport and would
appreciate some pointers before I go and mess it up!

My domain is w-c-f.org.uk, so probably I shall name my linux box as
w-c-f.org.uk and others on my lan as subdomains e.g. simon.w-c-f.org.uk
(Or maybe the linux box should be somename.w-c-f.org.uk - I've just
checked and found that http://w-c-f.org.uk takes me to my website, so
naming my box as w-c-f.org.uk is perhaps not such a good idea!)

1) Sometimes I shall want to send mail to someone@w-c-f.org.uk (which is
directly forwarded by gradwell to fred@another.isp) and want it to get
out of here. I suspect that sendmail (8.9.1) will not be inclined to
send it out since it will regard anyone@w-c-f.org.uk as local? Do I have
to do anything special here? (This will apply to a maximum of five
names, so some simple workaround will suffice - maybe an alias to
someone%w-c-f.org.uk@smarthost ?)

2) Similarly what about majordomo? Currently majordomo runs as
majordomo@child.demon.co.uk with maillist-L@child.demon.co.uk  OK, I'll
have to tell the list members the new address. Presumably if I name the
linux box as w-c-f.org.uk then majordomo will name the lists as
maillist-L@w-c-f.org.uk etc or maillist-L@somename.w-c-f.org.uk if I
call it somename.w-c-f.org.uk? Is that all there is to it, majordomo
will pick up whatever name I give the linux box? I think so, and perhaps
this emphasises the importance of getting the lan renaming correct first
go, since I shall want the mailing lists to end up with sensible and
stable names.

Any comments welcomed
