The From: header should be configured by your MUAi (pine?). I don't think this is an exim issue, it's the recipient server rejecting the mail because your From: header is broken. Exim is an MTA and as such, attempts to _transport_ what it is given. A -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
