It depends...if you connect from the local machine specifying 'localhost', or without specifying a hostname, then mysql looks for the localhost permission. If you connect through the localhost, but specify the actual hostname, it often uses the @hostname permission. That's the way it works for me connecting via php, and from the mysql command line, but you'll have to play around with it.
