Some programs use it to indicate status of the request: It was queued, it
was sent, etc.

I've read the manual, and I've found the two options, return_output and
return_fail_output -- setting them to false does not work.

The actual error I showed was an internal exim error, but I still have
Hylafax writting a message to stdout that exim insists on sending back to
the orginal sender. I have tried to write a wrapper and redirect stdio to
/dev/null, but it still returns the message.

I love exim, and I've been using EXIM on our mail server and installing it
on our customers mail servers for some time now, but this one 'problem'
is a bit frustrated. I am stumped on how to stop exim from redirecting
output back to the snder.
