Ah. In that case, Exim is behaving correctly.
So you know what I was talking about, this is the problem that I'm having:

SmartList puts in "Resent-From:", and "Resent-Date:". The problem
that I'm having is that some of my users have complained that the
"Resent-Sender:" takes precedence over the "From:" field so all
they see is:
From: "smartlist mailer,,," <list@???>
To: dnews@???
There aren't too many of these users, thankfully.
Thank you for clarifying that Exim is behaving correctly. I will
investigate some mailing list software that doesn't rely on Resent
for its loop management (I'd have thought X-Loop was enough).
