The best way of sorting this system-wide is to add a re-writing rule to
your /etc/exim.conf. On my system I have a user called scott and his
email address would be set by exim as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unfortunately his
email address is actually [EMAIL PROTECTED] This is the line I needed to
add:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ffsr
This means that when exim sees [EMAIL PROTECTED] it changes it to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] The line is added right at the end of /etc/exim.conf -
you will see similar lines commented out.
