I asked this same question awhile back and never received an answer, but
I tries a couple different ways and never could get it to work.

Can the same technique used in the hobbit-alerts.cfg for defining a
group of hosts be used in the hobbit-clients.cfg?  Example:

$HG_NOTES=(athena|ids|isis).foo.com

HOST=%$HG_NOTES
        PROC notes TRACK=notes "TEXT=Lotus Notes"
