The exim4 documentation claims that the passwd.client file is applied
to the result of reverse translating the ip address of the host!  The
fact that I need to put wildcard names into passwd.client seems to
support this claim.  I thus rejected /etc/hosts tricks as a
workaround.  But thanks for the thought.
