Are you purging the retry database regularly? something like this in your
crontab:
# clean up the retry database at the quietest time of day
25 5 * * * /opt/exim/bin/exim_tidydb -t 1d /var/spool/exim reject
30 5 * * * /opt/exim/bin/exim_tidydb -t 1d /var/spool/exim retry
35 5 * * * /opt/exim/bin/exim_tidydb -t 1d /var/spool/exim wait-remote_smtp
