This is done in the "REWRITE CONFIGURATION" section of the
'/etc/exim.conf' file.

Mine looks like this --

*@*.one xyf@inebraska.com bcfrF
*@inebraska.com xyf@inebraska.com bcfrF


'*@*.one' catches all the different names of my network and
'xyf@inebraska.com' is what the mail is rewriten to on the way out.
