Exim's specs say "including the angle brackets if necessary". If there
is no other text in the address, you don't need the <> and in fact, a
strict reading of RFC 822 (sic) says you musn't have them. I think 2822
has relaxed this, if I recall correctly. Anyway, as far as what you are
allowed goes, either of the above rewrite rules should work.
