Excellent point on the generic Host: field. I'll give that a shot.

Hi,
Yup seen that before, caused many of hours of cross words until figured out!
You mentioned reusable monitors.

But just be careful if your server or app monitors the host header for logging or security reasons this may not work or be advisable.
