Morning,
I have had this happen recently too, but I was moving from ssmtp to
exim on wheezy, using aptitude to remove ssmtp first allowed exim to
install. There are many mentions of this error, some very old, but
this one seems to give an clue at least.

No, I think that $HOST is obtained from /etc/hostname (AFAIK, it is
set by Debian at installation time).
you can test this with
changes to /etc/hosts, hostname -f and the
string exim gives on connect will be the same.
x.x.x.xhost host.domain.tld - will report just 'host'
x.x.x.xhost.domain.tld host - will report 'host.domain.tld'
so you could either fix this, or maybe set MAIN_HARDCODE_
lse simple but that's how i got it to work for me.
