rpi5 and 4, standard Debian clone OS

1) The 5, pi5.slsware.lan, keeps sending me email saying, 

"*** SECURITY information for pi5 ***" 

and 

"pi5 : Mar  4 15:40:14 : root : unable to resolve host pi5: Name or service not known"

I have no idea why it's complaining or what's bent.  


2) On both the 4 and 5, 'needrestart' says I'm running on an old kernel and tells me that a reboot will start the newer version.  But it's just kidding -- I reboot and I get the same message again.  The 4's been doing that for a long time, and I've just let it keep running the old kernel because I'm afraid I might break something if I try to delete the old kernel.  But I just got the 5 a few days ago, it's doing the same thing, and I'd like to get this dealt with.

IIRC (I'm 81, and that's no longer a given), I never saw this with the rpi2s or 3s or the real Debian boxen. 

Any thoughts/suggestions would be appreciated...
