This is controlled by ~/.pinerc. If I remember right, you can fix this
by changing the user-domain setting.

Exim's received headers are configurable through exim's
Received_header_text setting. The received header generated by the first
MTA outside your network may include your internal domain name through HELO.
You can fix this, though, by setting the primary_hostname in your exim
configuration file. (Since exim's qualify_domain defaults to
primary_hostname, you may need to provide an explicit setting for that if
you want it to be different.)
