I've just connected to axl.training.iafrica.com and your daemon returns:
220 axl.training.iafrica.com ESMTP Exim 2.053 #1 Tue, 17 Nov 1998 12:12:55
+0200

quit
221 axl.training.iafrica.com closing connection
Obviously, the daemon is ignoring the message size limit. Have you tried to
do exim -bP to print all the config variables to see if it has read the
value of message_size_limit correctly?
