You need to designate the user in /etc/email-addresses like -
kent: ktb@nixnotes.org
otheruser: user_name@where_ever.com

In /etc/exim.conf make sure -
*@scab.nixnotes.org    ${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/email-addresses}\
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^                           {$value}fail} bcfrF          
has the same designation as listed in /etc/hosts for your machine.
For example if "debian.local" maps your ip address then use that.

Then -
# /etc/init.d/exim restart
to make changes take effect.
