What goes wrong? Does it refuse all mail or just relaying? An example of
the error would help.
Where is goldminesw.com mentioned in your configuration?
I'm struggling to guess what it might be. Here's a recipe for you to
test your configuration:
1. Run an Exim listener on a non-standard port, with debugging turned on
exim1.82 -d9 -bd -oX 1225
2. Telnet to that port from the offending host if you can; otherwise set
up some other host in the same start and telnet from there.
3. Talk SMTP to it:
HELO <host name>
MAIL FROM:<sender>
RCPT TO:<recipient>
etc.
4. See what the debugging output says. It might give a clue.
