maybe this is called authenticate_hosts in exim3. I don't know.

Well, even though exim -bt can test some stuff, I don't think it will
test so deep as to test if my exim 3 guesses fit your exim 4 example.
So I am scared to test my guesses with real mail. Exim 4 is not in
apt-get update so I don't want to install it yet.
