Cheers in advance and hello to the people that might remember me I'm back .
First you would to grep the logs for the email address 'nobody@domain.com' through SSH. To do this kindly use the below mentioend command to grep the logs:

cat /var/log/exim_mainlog | grep nobody@domain.com

You will get the list of email logs for the above mentinoed email address. Now select the header ID related to the mail and use the bleow mentioned command to grep the full header:

cat /var/log/exim_mainlog | grep 1KJXXX-123XX-XX

Once you grep the header ID you will get the actual email address through which you can check which SMTP authentication is used.
