I think Liam is describing a situation where the only mail-capable 
machine is the server, in your example gnome.monet. He configured it to 
be the end-point for *.monet. But for mo's original use-case, gnome 
should only be the end-point for gnome.monet and desktop should be the 
end-point for desktop.monet. Then, if gnome.monet gets handed a mail for 
desktop.monet, it doesn't try to deliver it, but instead tries to pass 
it on, and that's when you need hubbed_hosts populated so it can find 
desktop.monet to pass it on to.

So Liam has consistently been describing a solution that, while 
perfectly valid, is the solution to a slightly different problem than 
the one mo originally asked about.
