           Apparently this did not fix the problem. I'm under the impression
   that the confirmation mail sent contains e-mail addresses that are not
   fully qualified and are therefore associated to the default mail.gnu.org
   by exim. Something like this.

I guess I wasn't clear enough, but the problem I fixed with delysid's
config almost certainly was not the problem you reported.
