Bug#299733: [Debian issue #299733] exim4: $primary_hostname not expanded in cyrus_sasl authenicator

[Marc Haber]

Hi,

this is issue #299733 from the Debian BTS. I am not sure whether this
is an issue with exim, but since the authenticators doesn't set any
server_hostname itself, I suspect the issue is with not expanding the
default.

Greetings
Marc
