I don't think that'll be the whole answer, though: the requirement
seems to be to use a different Sender/From based on To. The following
is for exim 3.35, but may provide some clue:

The following excerpt from my /etc/exim/exim.conf is used to send mail
to Yahoo mailing lists, primarily the BJH (Barclay James Harvest, an
excellent group) discussion list, from "bjh.pigeon@ukonline.co.uk" and
everyone else from addresses looked up in /etc/email-addresses:

pigeon@*.pigeonloft    "${if match {$header_to:}{.*@yahoogroups.com}\
                        {bjh.pigeon@ukonline.co.uk}fail}" frFs

*@*.pigeonloft    ${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/email-addresses}\
						{$value}fail} frFs

end
