And that did indeed work!

1: set /etc/hostname to "kt1"
2: create /etc/postfix/generic
3: insert lines:
       @kt1.biplane.com.au @biplane.com.au
       @kt1 @biplane.com.au
4: run "sudo postmap /etc/postfix/generic"
5: put "biplane.com.au" in /etc/mailname

That plus the usual settings to use a relayhost, and it all worked
beautifully. Though TBH I have no clue why, how, or even whether
/etc/mailname and/or myorigin has anything to do with anything.

My thanks to all those who offered suggestions.

Regards, K.
