I suppose your MTA (exim) is not correctly configured. How this has to be done depends so much on your network and its configuration that it is not possible to give some generalized answer.

Please answer specific questions and we can answer specifically.

In the meantime you might be interested in a little introduction about how the mail system works in general i wrote a few days ago.

I hope this helps.
