Hey,
I have few SMTP containers under AWS load balancer.
The problem is that the LB sends signals from internal IP which exim4 can't resolve.
the result is a lot of spam inside my logs:

15616 LOG: smtp_connection MAIN
15616   SMTP connection from [10.2.9.119] lost D=0s
15617 LOG: host_lookup_failed MAIN
15617   no host name found for IP address 10.2.9.119
15617 LOG: smtp_connection MAIN
15617   SMTP connection from [10.2.9.119] lost D=0s
15618 LOG: host_lookup_failed MAIN
15618   no host name found for IP address 10.2.9.119
15618 LOG: smtp_connection MAIN
15618   SMTP connection from [10.2.9.119] lost D=0s

This keeps on going forever.

It would be great if there were an option to disable **host_lookup = **
Inside the config file which is generated from exim4.conf.localmacros and exim4.conf.template of this solution.
