I'm sorry that you are having trouble receiving emails. The "myhostname" files should be the name of your domain name. We do have a few guides that you can reference for assistance with Postfix. I've provided the links for them, in case you haven't previously referenced them.

I've provided some additional links that may be able to assist you, if our guides aren't sufficient.
