At the bottom of my /etc/exim.conf, in the Address Rewriting section:

*@carrera	patmahoney@gmx.net	Ffsr

My hostname is carrera.  Since I am the only user, I want everything
rewriten.  Ffsr tells it which headers to rewrite (From, sender, reply-to). 
Install the exim docs package and read the info page.
