It turned out that it was not a configuration problem at all, but a deliberate 
change to the latest stable version of postfix, which removed a previously 
existing patch responsible for displaying the hostname in the domain-name.

In case it helps archive-searchers, the antidote is to edit 
the /etc/postfix/main.cf line

masquerade_domains = $mydomain

to read

masquerade_domains = |hostname.domain.tld (substituting your address of 
course).  The '|' tells postfix to NOT masquerade that address, IOW not to 
hide the hostname.

Thanks to all who tried to help.
