I keep forgetting about that, yes, it'd work, thanks.

There could be a few reasons for this to be dynamic, but I'm trying to build
an exim4 debian package that most people can use, and write an exim4.conf
that has all the options most people would need.
The idea is that people wouldn't have to modify that exim4.conf in most
configuration.
That's why I'm trying to load things like primary_hostname and trusted_users
from files (BTW trusted users is often stored in a file on sendmail).
