So, the issue is perhaps in the exim.conf/configure file with the received_header_text
setting. Try this one:


received_header_text         = "Received: \
                                ${if def:sender_rcvhost {from ${sender_rcvhost}\n\t}\
                                {${if def:sender_ident {from ${sender_ident} }}\
                                ${if def:sender_helo_name {(helo=${sender_helo_name})\n\t}}}}\
                                by ${primary_hostname} \
                                ${if def:received_protocol {with ${received_protocol}}} \
                                ${if def:tls_cipher {\n\t(Cipher ${tls_cipher}) }}\
                                ${if def:tls_peerdn {(PeerDN ${tls_peerdn}) }}\
                                (Exim ${version_number} #${compile_number} (FreeBSD 4.9))\n\t\
                                id ${message_id}\
                                ${if def:authenticated_id { by authid <$authenticated_id>}}\
                                ${if def:sender_host_authenticated { with $sender_host_authenticated}}\
                                ${if def:received_for {\n\tfor <$received_for>}}"

Of course obliterate the FreeBSD... and put yours. See if the symptoms are still
there.
