Not in my experience. My root mail, which does get delivered says:
# mail -s test root hello EOT # mail Heirloom mailx version 12.5 7/5/10. Type ? for help. "/var/spool/mail/root": 1 message 1 new
N 1 root@acer-suse.lan Mon Sep 25 11:56 18/542 test ? q Held 1 message in /var/spool/mail/root # host acer-suse.lan acer-suse.lan has address 192.168.1.72 Host acer-suse.lan not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
You're right, the address is canonicalized / hostname auto-appended. In /etc/postfix/main.cf I'll bet you have "myhostname = acer-suse.lan" ?
