Re: QWCRSSTS problem

[Scott Klement <rpg400-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The system name should not be used to build the domain part of the 
sender address. The system name and the TCP/IP domain name are two 
different things.

Presumably, on the OP's system they happen to contain the same value, 
and therefore appear to be the same.  And I guess it'll work if you are 
sure it'll only be used on your system -- and you're sure that your 
system will always have the system name and the domain name set to the 
same value.  (Though, I'd say it's misleading at the very least.  you 
may as well hard-code the domain name in your code!)

But the OP said it was part of a freeware or open source toolkit.  In 
that case, this is definitely not a good assumption to make.
