Hello,

I encountered the following problem:

A provider offers the virtual host    auth.smtp.kundenserver.de    for
authenticated smtp.
This hostname may refer to different physical hosts. A reverse lookup shows
a different hostname like e.g. mrelayng.kundenserver.de.
The file esmtpauthclient needs to hold the real name of the host in order to
work. Otherwise the mailrelay isn't recognized for authentication.

Shouldn't the file esmtpauthclient also work for the virtual name?

I only tested this with mailrelays named in esmtproutes.
The whole thing is not a big problem unless the provider starts to have a
lot of mailexchangers or switches them every few weeks.

Regards
Manfred
