@olegz yes it is just for display. It essentially was put in place to
prevent servers from exposing names that the dataflow creator may prefer to
omit.
There are other use cases tho:
- Load balanced SMTP instances
- Shared TLS certificates (where TLS validation is used from the sending
MTA side)
- "Please don't share my internal hostnames"
and so on
