Default Sendmail not working & Apache error, nightmare!

Hi. I'm running OpenBSD 3.3 i386. Fresh install with just a few added
packages and sources. Samba, Ghostscript, bash, ntp, png and PHP 4.3.3
(complied by source). I've done some configuring to BIND DNS server and
Samba. But as a whole the system is fresh and in place.

Here's the deal I can not seem to send out e-mail. I get this error
message in /var/maillog/.

"Host unknown (Name server: domainnamehere: no data known)
DSN: Host unknown (Name server: domainnamehere.com: no data known)"

Now everything seems to work fine. I've been using my one machine for my
primary and only DNS. The only other problem I've come accross on the
system is in the logs of /var/www/logs/error_log I get " httpd: Could
not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1
for ServerName". I would love to resolve that as well if anyone can help
me out. One more thing, I have reset my hosts.allow to "all:all" and
hosts.deny is empty. Any more information needed let me know.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

You bind is misconfigured. No sendmail problem.

Find the ServerName in httpd.conf and change that to what fits for you.
No sendmail problem as well but a DNS problem (/etc/hosts).

Would you happen to know what maybe causing this then in my Bind setup?
I'm not very familiar with Bind. Is there any file I could post that
would help?

Thanks!
