distributed monitoring - same named hosts?

How do you deal with same named hosts in a distributed monitoring 
environment?

e.g. suppose I have a local nagios "sensor" at each of several different 
remote sales offices.  they use nsca to send the data back to the 
central server.  Each office has a server called "mail".  What are the 
various methods y'all are using to manage this situation and avoid 
confusion.

Is there a $MACRO$ that identifies the nagios host the service check was 
executed FROM?
