Where I was originally led astray was in Chapter 31.11:
For example, to apply a rewriting rule only to messages that originate outside 
the local host:

*@*.hitch.fict.example  "${if !eq {$sender_host_address}{}\
                         {[email protected]}fail}"

I read (past tense) "outside the local host" to exclude the local interface.

How about this:

"When a message is received from a remote host using SMTP,
this variable contains that
host's IP address. For locally non-SMTP submitted messages,
it is empty."

I can put this in the next release.
