#231 Message-Id should include a hostname

[Sylvain Tertois]

According to RFC822 a message-id should be made of a
local part and a hostname.On a test email I sent
myself, the hostname is missing:

To: daixiwen@daixiwen.net
Subject: essai
X-Mailer: BeMail - Mail Daemon Replacement 3.0.0 Final
From: "Sylvain Tertois" <sylvain@becoz.org>

Message-Id: <9578016030-BeMail@>

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="windows-1252"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

It sure does work here. Are you sure you've set the hostname
correctly?
This is what the code in question looks like:

message_id << "<";
message_id << system_time();
message_id << "-BeMail@";

#if BONE
utsname uinfo;
uname(&uinfo);
message_id << uinfo.nodename;
#else
char host[255];
gethostname(host,255);
message_id << host;
#endif

What version of BeOS are you using?

This is odd...
I'm using BeOS 5.0.3 Pro with Bone-7a

Hostname and uname seem to be correctly set:
Welcome to the BeOS shell.

$ hostname
odin
$ uname -n
odin

I compiled and run this C program:
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/utsname.h>

main()
{
utsname uinfo;
char host[255];

uname(&uinfo);
printf("uinfo.nodename:'%s'\n",uinfo.nodename);

gethostname(host,255);
printf("gethostname:'%s'\n",host);
}

And here is the result:
$ ./test
uinfo.nodename:'odin'
gethostname:'odin'

Am I using the right version of Bemail? I'm using the
december 9th version from bebits

Looks like a new bug. In 2.3.1 it inserts my system's host name
correctly. Maybe something got broken in 3.x? Also, Bruno was
having problems too, with his apparent host name containing NUL
characters in the e-mail headers. Suspicious.
