As long as darkstar.cwaiken.com is resolvable (which it is) you won't have
any problems.
To get exim to do what you want, take a look at the section in
/etc/exim.conf labeled:
######################################################################
# REWRITE CONFIGURATION #
######################################################################
Also read chapter 34 or so (labeled "Address Rewriting") of the exim
specification. You should have a gzip'ed copy under /usr/share/doc/exim.
