At the end of the Exim configuration file you will see:

######################################################################
#                      REWRITE CONFIGURATION                         #
######################################################################


# There are no rewriting specifications in this default configuration file.

begin rewrite
#Here you can stick
*@server.domain.name      $local_part@???


# or
*@*.domain.name             $local_part@???


Kind regards
