I infer that exim is not being given the envelop address of the

Quoting /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.template:

# By default, exim forces a Sender: header containing the local

# that don't have the local account name at the local host name in the
# From: header, deletes any Sender: header present in the submitted
# message and forces the envelope sender of all locally submitted
# messages to the local account name at the local host name.
# The following settings allow local users to specify their own envelope sender
# in a locally submitted message. Sender: headers existing in a locally
# submitted message are not removed, and no automatic Sender: headers
# are added. These settings are fine for most hosts.
# If you run exim on a classical multi-user systems where all users
# have local mailboxes that can be reached via SMTP from the Internet
# with the local FQDN as the domain part of the address, you might want
# to disable the following three lines for traceability reasons.
.ifndef MAIN_FORCE_SENDER
local_from_check = false
local_sender_retain = true
untrusted_set_sender = *
