Ahh, Exim.
Do you have anything set in /etc/exim.conf's
host_accept_relay=
(about 20% through the file)
?
To allow my server to relay mail for my local domain, I have this set as:
host_accept_relay = localhost : 10.64.132.0/24
I had the same problem you did, and to be honest I'm not sure if this was
the fix for the entire problem. Exim is a strange beast. ;o)
