Your

    echo … | mail … -r …


is called by a non-privileged user "user1", isn't it?
Exim overrides the envelope sender with the ID it believes to be correct
and trusted. In your case it is the "user1".

(I assume, mail invokes sendmail, which in turn is just an Exim.)

You can add your local "user1" to the list of trusted users. Or use the
${address:$h_from:} expansion. (And hope that the From: header doesn't contain
multiple addresses.)
