I think Philip's first reply would be 'what happens when you try using the
-d9 (or -d11 for DNS lookups) option'.
I'd also run 'exim -bP sender_net_accept_relay' to be sure that exim has what
you expect. Ensure that the 'forbid_domain_literals' option is false. Check
that the director/router doesn't have an 'exclude_domain' to the specified
domain you want. Check that the ipliteral router is configured okay. Finally
look in the reject logs. The reject message will indicate which config option
is doing the 'banning'. It will give a word (host/net or whatever) in
parenthesis...eg:
refused relay (host accept) to ....
Hope this gives you some pointers :-)
