On a hunch, I wonder if you've customized /etc/email-addresses. Exim
uses it to set the default return address for your Linux account.

I use the mutt email reader. Normally it uses the return address that I
specify. But if it doesn't get set for some reason (experimental
mbox-hooks in .muttrc) then it uses the default.

You can get a lot of info by bcc:ing yourself on a message and reviewing
the headers.
