Maybe.

In php.ini, you set the sendmail_path.

Your sendmail_path presumably uses exim instead of sendmail?

At any rate, if there are command line args for exim to set the "From"
or whatever it is you want changed, you can cram them into the
sendmail_path in php.ini, and that changes what happens when mail is
sent.

If your mail agent does NOT support those as command line args, you
could perhaps set up a special configuration of exim for PHP to run
that has the right /etc/exim.conf (or whatever) files to make it do
what you want.

I really only half-understand this with sendmail, and I know zilch
about exim, but at least this MIGHT work for you.
