Right, my bad. However, something is stripping all quotes from the message,
which makes the missing space an issue. I don't know that it is an Exim
issue at this point, so I've taken it to another list for now. If you know
of an Exim issue that could cause this, please let me know. Example below of
headers on SAME message, one at cc: address server, other at to: address
server (Exim):

==="Cc" message, non-Exim server===============
To: steve@???
Cc: user@???
Reply-To: "user@???"<buddhafinder@???>
From: "user@???" <auction.messages@???>

==="To" message, exim machine==============
To: steve@???
Cc: user@???
Reply-To: user@???<buddhafinder@???>
From: user@??? <auction.messages@???>
