Assumpte: [Exim] lesson: don't play with address_data!
setting up my backup mx (really a mirror setup) I did a mistake that
was fortunately too difficult to find.
In short, if you use $address_data for instance to store your
envelope sender, when a router temporarily changes it, and then
restore it in its transport, then you MUST set the address_data is
ALL the routers that use that particular transport.
Trivial but easy to miss. In my case I noticed that all outgoing
email had their env.sender set to <>.
