Gentlemen, some users would like to stamp any "jidanni1.jidanni.org"
out of the headers of anything they send to the public. Wanting a more
professional uniform "jidanni.org" in its place.

Well, with the dpkg-reconfigure choices, one can only get so far.

The final touch is to get it out of the SMTP HELO or whatever.
Anyway I finally accomplished it with

$ cat update-exim4.conf.conf
dc_eximconfig_configtype='smarthost'
dc_other_hostnames='jidanni.org;jidanni1;jidanni2;jidanni1.jidanni.org;jidanni2.jidanni.org'
dc_readhost='jidanni.org'
dc_relay_domains=''
dc_minimaldns='true'
dc_relay_nets=''
dc_local_interfaces=''
CFILEMODE='644'
dc_use_split_config='false'
dc_hide_mailname='false'
dc_mailname_in_oh='true'
dc_localdelivery='mail_spool'
dc_smarthost=....
$ cat exim4.conf.localmacros
MAIN_HARDCODE_PRIMARY_HOSTNAME=jidanni.org
smtp_active_hostname=MAIN_HARDCODE_PRIMARY_HOSTNAME
message_id_header_domain=MAIN_HARDCODE_PRIMARY_HOSTNAME
received_header_text=

You might want to make a note of it somewhere.

I didn't test dc_hide_mailname.
