I'm getting a similar error from some of my systems, though I do have
exim already configured to do header rewriting to my valid external
address and that works in other places. It appears that somewhere my
domain name isn't being appended for the rewriting to work.
This particular box gets its network config from DHCP. However, my other
box (IIRC) is doing the same thing and is hard-config'd.
