Your qualify_domain and qualify_recipient are (from default) commented out. If
you send unqualified mail (don't know exactly what you type in the To:
address, webmaster@ or webmaster) Exim won't know that this is local deliver
address - unless you tell it. Exim is primarily designed as Internet mail
server and does expect, as a rule, addresses in full form user@domain.

For your Exim (actually mail you sent copied to me showed Exim 3.03) do

# /exim4installdir/bin/exim -bV

this will tell you what version Exim is. Then check where sendmail soft link
is pointing to:

# which sendmail
        and assuming you get say "/usr/sbin/sendmail"
# ls -la /usr/sbin/sendmail
        will show you which Exim is being called.


I just followed all your headers.
