What does it say on the log? If that isn't helpful, what does it say if
you try to run the delivery with debugging turned on? You can do this by

exim -d -M <message id>

Where the message id is something like 0yJgpe-0005dT-00 that you can
find by listing the queue with "exim -bp". If that doesn't help, turn
more debugging on by putting a number after -d, up to 9.
