Dear all
I've installed a cfengine on some server. Every change of state i'll 
received an email, thank's to postfix configured by.... cfenegine :-)

What i'v notice is that the subject of the email is of the following format:

[hostname / ip address]

Which IP address is using cf_execd? That's seems to be the first one 
present as a result of "ip a" command (excluding localhost, that's normal).

It is a way to define some proper subjet? The documentation about that is 
not very clear to me:

body executor control { mailsubject => "CFEngine report ($(sys.fqhost))"; }

Where should i write this code?

Thank's a lot!
