Using exim4 and fetchmail with imap and authenticated smtp



Im using exim4 and fetchmail to recieve email from an imap server using
tls, and send using authenticated smtp on an smtp host at the same site.
However, when i look over the headers of emails i send, i see lots of
them contain tom@locahost which is my local username, rather than the
email address of tb100@doc.ic.ac.uk

Is this normal and am i being paranoid? I set up all the packages making
as little modification as possible to what debconf produced. I made a
few changes to get authenticated smtp working, and did my fetchmail by
hand and it all seems to work, i just worry about things ;)

Thanks

Tom
