-f works per default only for "trusted" users and is ignored
otherwise, you can either make www-data itself trusted (which has
other implications that you should look up in the manual) or set
untrusted_set_sender (global boolean in exim3, expanded address list
in exim4), perhaps together with local_from_check = false.

-d<somewalue>, especicially together with -bt, -bv or -bh is really
helpful, too.

It looks like you haven't found the other _big_ exim bonus - its
included documentation. You could have easily answered this question
for yourself by using it:
"The Exim command line" --> "Command line options" --> "-f" which has
all the explanations.
