Almost surely not in exim 3
If you are using exim 4, this could probably be done within an ACL.
Most implementations of AUTH leave the envelope sender alone, and simple
force-insert a header like "X-SMTP-AUTH: by user@???"
If you are an ISP, keep in mind that it is possible your
authorized/legitimate customers, might have a legitimate need to send
mail 'from' some other mail account(s) they might have.
SMTP AUTH is better used just as an accountability tool, and as a way to
prevent J Random Spammer from relaying through your machine.
