Ah, I was assuming you were talking about actual Exim debug, as opposed to 
Thunderbird.

So more something like this ?:

So you're actually not talking about the From: header
but either the Sender: header or the envelope-from?

Being sure on that might help the docs search.

I suspect you got
  "If a non-empty domain is specified by the submission control, the local part is 
$authenticated_id, and the domain is the specified domain."
for Sender:  followed by
  "Whenever a Sender: header line is created"
for env-from.
