This is not really an Exim problem. The UNEXPECTED... e-mail address
comes from your webmail interface. (To be precise it comes from PHP's
rfc822 address parsing functions.) Ideally you would suppress this by
modifying the webmail interface not to do that.

I would expect the UNEXPECTED... address to bounce immediately. Are you
sure the message isn't being queued for one of the other addresses? Is
it frozen? Is the sender address valid? If your webmail interface is
unable to set the sender address correctly, you may need to make the
webserver user trusted and/or turn on the untrusted_set_sender option in
your Exim configuration.
