Pkg exim4 users - Aug 2005 - config files under debian

Under debian, is dc_other_hostnames expanded into local_domains? There 
is no mention of specifically for dc_other_hostsnames in the debian 
documentation. I did grep a mention of it in the Change_log however;

	mailname is not implicitely made a local domain, instead it is listed
	explicitely in dc_other_hostnames, where users can easily remove it 
from.

By the above snippet might I assume the following;

	The "mailname" of the host is not implicitly set through the 
local_domain mechanism under Debain. Instead
	in the file /etc/exim4/update.conf.conf dc_other_hostnames is used 
which will be used to create the Debian
	version of the exim4 configuration file.

Thanks,

Jeremiah

Yes. From the man page update-exim4.conf(8):
|       dc_other_hostnames
|              is used to  build  the  local_domains  hostlist, together  with
|              "localhost".  This is the list of domains for which
this machine
|              should consider itself the final destination.
