Bug Description
Since installing Ubuntu 11.10 on my system, apticron has stopped using the hostname in its e-mails and instead is using one of the in-addr.arpa records instead. (The mail claims to come from 219.117.
Apticron should go back to using the canonical hostname from /etc/hosts, rather than picking presumably a random interface and looking up a DNS record from that that may not even be set by the system admin.
