Exim is doing /exactly/ what it (and any other MTA) is supposed to do.

There is absolutely *no* correlation between the contents of the SMTP
envelope (`mail from' and `rcpt to') and the contents of any `From', `To',
`CC', etc., headers in the message. The headers are "simply" plain text
presented as part of the `DATA', so if you want them to appear, you need to
add them.

telnet localhost 25
mail from: mike.wayburne@???
rcpt to: userunknown@???
rcpt to: mikew@???
data
From: Mike <mike.wayburne@???>
To: Someone <userunknown@???>, <example@???>
Cc: Mike <mikew@???>, "Someone Else" <example@???>
Subject: Fish!

test
