Uhh... because 99.9% of the world types in 'www' before a 
domain name?!?!  If you don't put in 'www', at least put 
in a wildcard.

No, you misunderstood ;-)  I was refering to the Cobalt control panel GUI:

Host Name - www
Domain name - afriqonline.co.za
Web Server Alias - afriqonline.co.za
Email Server Alias - afriqonline.co.za

My understanding is that the host name (being "www") surely handles the 
http://www.domain.net request?  The Web server alias is used to catch 
http://domain.net ...

But in any event, the bad return address was the result of me using my 
host24.com e-mail address when testing, and since that is the server domain and 
it hasn't been transferred yet (from a DNS point of view), sendmail got upset.

Bottom line - the catch-all e-mail alias issue is now resolved (thanks, revd 
Leonard!).

Rgrds,

Johan
