Technically you probably don't have an MTA as such; Exim in your case is
acting as an MSA - but that's a technicality which is irrelevant :)

All that indicates is that you have a router in your exim config called
lowuid_alias. [You also have routers called procmail and maildrop].
Again, not really relevant.

Your problem is that your desktop machine is setup to authenticate to
your ISP's MSA/MTA, your laptop isn't. The giveaway? The headers of your
last message say:

209.237.134.182 is in the same block as the one your last error report
came from - mymail.myregisteredsite.com.
If I were you I'd look at the way you have both configs setup, and
transpose the outbound authentication section from desktop to laptop.
Then you'll be fine.
