The easiest is running "dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config" and when it asks 
for the "System mail name" make sure it reads "steinmetz.com". Also 
depending on your configuration you get the option of hiding "local mail 
name in outgoing mail" which you may like to enable.

You also might want to add smtp.steinmetz.com to "Other destinations for 
which mail is accepted". So that email in the format of 
example at smtp.steinmetz.com will be accepted.

If it is configured right email directed to @steinmetz.com and 
@smtp.steinmetz.com should be accepted, but email sent out will only 
have the @steinmetz.com address format.

I hope I didn't mix up something. ;-)
Check /usr/share/doc/exim4-base/README.Debian.html
