Looks like you're using the extended syntax for tcp_wrappers. In that
case, you should put all your entries into hosts.allow. For example:
sshd: ALL: ALLOW
exim: ALL: DENY
Note also that i've seen some versions of tcp_wrappers be somewhat
finicky about whitespace before the colons; you might try leaving it
out (as shown in the example above).
