Interestingly, I just had a very similar problem of return-paths
being mangled:

LOG: 1HJjfO-00030H-Pf <= "marco@???
H=ip3e83cd10.speed.planet.nl [62.131.205.16] P=smtp
A=PLAIN:marco@??? S=408

(This is from being run as "exim -bhc 62.131.205.16 -oMi
83.98.201.101 -oMaa PLAIN -oMai 'marco@???'", but of
course the real thing going wrong is what alerted me to the situation).

The authenticated_id was being prefixed to the qualify_domain as a
return-path (and for the bounce when this went haywire because of the
quotes and extra @-sign, the envelope recipient). This won't cause
many issues if you have loginnames like 'foo', but if your
authentication backend needs to accept multiple domainnames
('foo@???'), things go wrong.

control = submission/sender_retain worked its magic for me, keeping
the envelope sender that I had set in my mail client in the return-path.

So basically this:

Are you sure your acl is correct and the control is even being
applied to your message?
