[S.u.S.E. Linux] Sendmail error messages



Hello.
I' m getting lots of messages like these in /var/log/mail

Apr 29 16:49:48 localhost sendmail[1661]: My unqualified host name
(localhost) unknown; sleeping for retry
Apr 29 16:50:48 localhost sendmail[1661]: unable to qualify my own domain
name (localhost) -- using short name

Sendmail is working in queued mode and all seems to work fine... but what
do these messages mean? What did I miss? I' ve also seen that, if I type
"mailq", the answer is printed exactly 60 seconds after the request and,
in /var/log/mail, each of two messages is delayed exactly 60 seconds (if
you see, 16:49:48 - 16:50:48).

Is there anything wrong?

Thanks for your answer.

Bye.

P.S.: I' m using S.u.S.E. 5.1.
