And that's all very well, but the problem I have is that several
of the hosts I am relaying to have different actual DNS names than
the one I use to contact them.
I know the contact name, but if I use that in client authenticator
expansions it fails to match $host, because $host is rewritten with
the primary DNS name. As an example, connecting to
smtp.sbcglobal.yahoo.com
will yield
smtp.sbc.mail.yahoo4.akadns.net
and
smtp.gmail.com
will yield
gmail-smtp.l.google.com
in $host. And, over time, this can change without notification.
Is it possible to access the hostname I used to connect
inside the exim client authenticator rules? Is there some
other way to structure this?
