That's just as illegal. The SMTP envelope commands MAIL and RCPT do
not allow extra text to accompany the address(es).

But MUA's don't generally have access to the SMTP envelope addresses
anyway, so the OP's question makes no sense to me. Sounds like he's
asking about the message's From: header, in which case exim's got
nothing to do with it.
