I am running fbsd2.1 and have discovered a problem with pine.  If
I send a message via mail i.e.  "mail usrname", that usr can read
the message via mail or pine.

If I were to send a message to "usrname" via the Compose a message
selection in pine, the message will not be delivered, and will eventally
wind up back in my mail as an undelivered message.

When Composing in pine, after I type the usrname, and press enter, pine pine
adds the correct machine&domain extention.  These are the messages that 
get returned.  If I enter "usrname@localhost", the messages get delivered
just fine.  

Has anybody else seen this, and how do you correct the problem?
