It already behaves like this. You can see this with exim -bh. For example:
> exim -bh 199.178.78.6
**** SMTP testing session as if from host 199.178.78.6
**** Not for real!
>>> host in host_lookup? yes (0.0.0.0/0)
>>> looking up host name for 199.178.78.6
>>> IP address lookup yielded warrior.warren.k12.in.us
>>> host in host_reject? no (end of list)
>>> host in host_reject_recipients? no (option unset)
>>> host in rbl_hosts? yes (*)
>>> RBL lookup for 6.78.178.199.rbl.maps.vix.com failed
