Ah yes--missed that one (probably because it was so short compared to  
the others), sorry.

Regarding recipient confusion with this method, you'll notice my  
sample defs used a common alias.  The alias is what gets reported, so  
recipients wouldn't see different hostnames--just different service  
names.
