Those syscalls has _nothing_ to do with DNS so they can not be used to
form FQDNs. gethostname() is sadly often

It needs to know all of its own host names in order to recognize local
mail. At least I think this is the motivation; obviously, using reverse
lookup to gather this dat

Hi,
Exim has the habit of trying to find out about its host names and IP
addresses when it starts up. This has, in the past, been an issue for
the Debian packages, since a Debian system might be on a
dial-on-demand modem line with expensive costs and thus should not do
unnecessary DNS lookup when

Anthony Towns has applied a fix to dak and Format: 1.8 is accepted now.
He also resurrected the uploads which have been rejected due to this check
