I was talking of sending a mail from a mail client on the same server to
another user on the same server it does not expand the username with domain
name. Now i tried with recipient_unqualified_hosts = My net IP/16 &
sender_unqualified_hosts = My IP Class /16 as suggested by you. If I lkeave
these unspecified it should take it from qualify_domain = ourdomain.com
directive right!

pl help me out

Thanks & Regards
