Re: exim: local vs. remote smtp ???

 exim will get it from <user>@<localhost>
 you need to tell exim to rewrite that address on outgoing mail
   (by specifying that in eximconf)

 i think this could be done by /etc/aliases (also used by exim)

 so you need to read exim doc.
 not a small thing to read, but very good quality.

 hope this helps,
