this is fixed in SVN/CVS, but it did not yet get into d-i

well, it is "der Hostname". You are right, a replacement of "Ihr" with
"Ihren" is needed: ..., der Ihren Rechner ...

That's right, it is displayed only once. We try to keep messages and
dialogs as little as possible, so I - personaly - think it is ok to
mention it only one time. And I think it is clear that the user does not
see it in the next 3 dialogs.

Please see above, I proof-readed exim and cleaned out this one along the
some others, so exim4-translation is in good shape in SVN/CVS

has already been done, too. This message exists of two different
strings, and one - as you already mentioned - was not translated. That's
because some messages in d-i are mixed...
