[Cialug] outgoing mail help

[jrnosee at gmail.com]

telnet fine on 587.

got a lot of this in /var/log/mail.log:
Feb  8 13:00:01 <pcname> sm-msp-queue[16385]: My unqualified host name
(<pcname>) unknown; sleeping for retry
Feb  8 13:01:01 <pcname>sm-msp-queue[16385]: unable to qualify my own domain
name (<pcname>) -- using short name

Will it not send without a fully qualified domain name?
