From the chapter on generic options for transports in the Exim 4 manual:

headers_remove                  Type: string*                  Default: unset


    This option is expanded; the result must consist of a colon-separated list
    of header names, not including the terminating colon, for example:


      headers_remove = return-receipt-to:acknowledge-to


    Any existing headers matching those names are not included in any message
    ^^^
    ^^^
    that is transmitted by the transport. However, added headers may have
    these names. Thus it is possible to replace a header by specifying it in
    "headers_remove" and supplying the replacement in "headers_add". Headers
    to be removed can also be specified by routers. See chapter 14 and section
    43.13.


OK, it's not entirely clear, but what it means is that if you specify
a name and there is more than one such header line, they all get
removed.
