Exim will only send mail over the configured Transports, as dictated by
the Routers which accept responsibility for delivering to that
recipient.

If Exim sent email without constraining its source IP address, then you
have a Transport which supports that and the first Router accepting the
mail is using that Transport.

So: please provide your configuration (you can strip comments) and
log entries for the problematic messages.
