Define "overrides". "exim -f" only sets the envelope sender. It
doesn't change any headers. And, as near as I can tell, Exim doesn't
take the envelope sender from the "From" header -- the envelope sender
is controlled by the config file. I'm testing with Exim 4 right now,
but I don't recall any different behaviour under Exim 3.
Perhaps if you could explain what you're trying to achieve, we could
help you get there.
