The hostname (the name of the computer) can be found in most Linux distributions by issuing the hostname command without arguments. Alternatively, you can view the contents of /etc/hosts. The hostname will be listed next to the IP address 127.0.1.1.
A hostname in an email address appears after the @ symbol, like user@hostname.com. The hostname is always the company or group that handles that email address.
