Watch out - regular expressions dont work like that. Asterisk means "0
or more of the previous character", so having an asterisk as the first
character of the regex is invalid.

If you *really* want it to match exactly any host in the "example.com" 
domain, you would have to use this:

  HOST=%^.+\.example\.com$
