I was getting bounced on my sent msgs because my localdomain.localhost
address could not be resolved.In the last section of exim.conf(Rewrite
Configuration), exim looks up the real addresses of all local users in the
file /etc/email-addresses.
In /etc/email-addresses put the addresses to use for out going mail
e.g. > user: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This makes sure the address is resolved.
