I ran into this problem a while ago... Basically, I came to the conlcusion that you should configure your mail program to replace the from header. For Example, in Mutt, just add the following to your muttrc file:
my_hdr From: Tomislav Renic \<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> my_hdr Reply-To: Tomislav Renic \<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> This sets the reply-to and the From header to whatever you want... Having said that, I'm not sure how to make exim do the work, and was unsuccesful trying to find an answer...
