Well, I re-enabled esmtp as my MTA in Mutt and it works splendidly with
a very simple config file--four lines. There are some compromises such
as no delivery of local mail and Mutt has to wait until the SMTP
transaction is complete. Also my muttrc has the following line:
my_hdr From: Nate Bargmann <n0nb@n0nb.us>
So, if Exim isn't showing a proper "From:" line, then I'd say Exim is
broken.
Perhaps I ought to check out Postfix and cut my losses on Exim4.
