removed the old manual because it is really outdated now In masqmail's 0.3 branch, so much changed that the old manual causes more harm than it improves the distribution. Most content is covered by the man pages anyway. You'll still find the old manual on masqmail's homepage.

# this is what Debian uses
cat /etc/mailname

# probably a good value on GNU/Linux
hostname -f

# this is often the short hostname
cat /etc/hostname

# often the short hostname, but widely available
hostname

# this file was mentioned on the Internet
cat /etc/HOSTNAME
