This sounds like something you should more likely be asking the exim
mailing list.
That said, to prove for a fact whether it's mutt or exim, try
replacing your hooks with this:
send-hook .* 'my_hdr From: samiel <samiel@debian>'
If your mail still has the wrong header, then there's nothing mutt can
do about it. Exim is likely rewriting things that use the form
"@hostname" (where "hostname" is the local machine's hostname), since
those are technically illegal according to the SMTP RFC (2822).
