Thanks for the prompt responses from several folks at CCI.
It turns out that the entry for the local machine (mit-eddie, in our case)
has to appear as the FIRST entry in /etc/hosts, BEFORE the localhost
entry.

I'm told that rochester!bukys' fix to daemon.c/myhostname() from last week
will fix not only the ``w'' class problem (which we had never noticed
because we define w in the sendmail.cf file), but the syslog problem as well.

	Mark
