Alright Roger I set my linux box up with the hostname b-dub.org made the
appropriate change to the postfix config file.  And successfully mailed to
myself @b-dub.org  when I sent a message to cosmo.b-dub.org I got a message
back from postfix saying that the address loops back to myself.

Thanks for the help.

I would like to extend this to all the kind folks that offered their time in
helping me out with this today.  If you like live music take a look at:

If you see something you like let me know and I will push it out to my ftp
server for you to download. (please reply offlist) (I can push ~100KB/sec) 

Thanks again,
JP
