I don't think this will completely solve our problem (I eventually solved
a similar one by using my ISP as a gateway which you say isn't an
option) but this will certainly help:
in /etc/exim.conf set "trusted_users = your_account_name_here" - this list
is colon-separated if there are accounts there already - this will stop it
attaching a Sender header which will obviously be difference from your
>From address and causes mail to be rejected.
Also it might be an idea to set qualify_domain to localhost rather than to
a made-up name, since the reverse DNS certainly fails on that.
If this doesn't work, and it may well not completely solve the problem - I
can only point to the faq at www.exim.org which is one of the lengthiest
I've ever seen so might well address the problem.
