Long story short, changing uname to be something other than the container
name will cause ripple effects in other places.

My ultimate goal with setting 'primary_hostname' is to control the host
name exposed in the HELO for outgoing messages. My understanding is some
ESP reverse lookup the host name to assess reputation. Perhaps I can
achieve that goal by instead setting 'qualify_domain' and 'helo_data' in
the smtp transport? But alas, just using a macro will be easy enough :)

That would be helpful. Can you point me to a reference? I did not find
anything in the "Specification of the Exim Mail Transfer Agent", Revision
4.96 (25 Jun 2022.)

Thanks!
