This works for me:

In /etc/exim.conf:

######################################################################
#                      REWRITE CONFIGURATION                         #
######################################################################


# There are no rewriting specifications in this default configuration file.


# This is an example of a useful rewriting rule---it looks up the real
# address of all local users in a file

 *@localhost    ${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/email-addresses}\
                 {$value}fail} bcfrF

# End of Exim configuration 
# file
						 
and in your situation the file /etc/email-addresses must contain:

lance  lance@augustmail.com
