Fwd: ubuntu Wiki error

[Kevin Godby]

Hi, guys.

I received the following message a bit ago (edited slightly to remove
sender's contact info).  It does look like a copy-paste error on the wiki
page. Could someone correct it when they get a chance? (I can't edit the
wiki page directly myself either.)

Thanks!

Wanted to report a small error but don't have a the time to join a Wiki
editing team, wait 1-7 days for approval, read six pages of guidelines, and
learn a new markup language!  Hope it's okay to just send you an email.

On this otherwise very helpful page:  https://help.ubuntu.com/
community/EmailAlerts

the author has this section, which doesn't work in my testing:

   # The full hostname
   #hostname=MyMediaServer.home
   hostname=MyEmailAddress at gmail.com

hostname should be computer name, not an email address. For purposes of
this guide, I'd just leave it as the default:

   # The full hostname
   hostname=MyMediaServer.home

Best regards,

Mark
