Followup-For: Bug #65041
Hi,
just a testimony that i spent several hours trying to figure out
what was happening with the all-digits hostname, and the email server
complaining about not having a fully qualified domain name.
So yes, it still applies to latest versio
It seems to me that gotom's analysis is correct: gethostbyname
interprets an all-numeric-no-dots argument string as an IP address; see
(libc.info.gz)Abstract Host Addresses for details. What this ultimately
means is that gethostbyname cannot resolve an all-numeric hostname into
a fully qualified do
