As Jeremy pointed out, this is matter of the MUAs they use. Often it is
called 'Identity' in the MUA configuration.

If it comes to Exim: it depends how the MUA submit the messages.
And if we talk about From: or the envelope.

Depending on how the messages are submitted to Exim, Exim does
several sanity checks with the envelope sender and may modify the
envelope. Exim (in its standard configuration) should not touch the
From: header, but may add a Sender: header, if there is any descrepancy
between the envelope-from and the From: header.

Keep in mind, that the recipient may do checks on the From: and
Envelope-Sender too.

To be more helpful we need more details.
