You could append a different domain to Mail delivert by fetchmail eg.
poll ... is [EMAIL PROTECTED] here
and add from.somewhere.else.com to exims local_domains.

To use maildir delivery use something like
maildir_delivery
driver = appendfile
create_directory = true
directory_mode = 700
directory = /var/spool/maildirs/${local_part}/
headers_remove = "Bcc"
user = <someuser>
group = <somegroup>
maildir_format
mode = 660
in the transports section and
maildir_user
transport = maildir_delivery
domains = from.somewhere.else.com
in the directors section.
