when i send a message

echo "data" | exim recipient
echo "data" | mailx recipient

then the from-header looks like

"arno,,," <correct-sender-address>

'arno' is the system user as i was logged in and its origin address
'arno@???' was rewritten correctly to full.name@domain

for exim i found the option -F to replace that "arno,,,"
and for mailx there is an option -r xxx that leads to 'xxx
<correct-sender-address>' if xxx is a complete address (i.e.
'correct-sender-address <correct-sender-address>') ,
'xxx@??? <correct-sender-address>' otherwise.

how this can be avoided / handled in generally ?
