sender_net_accept_relay is an Exim 2.x option. In Exim 3.x you do it all
with hosts_accept_relay. If you want to look up IP addresses
within a dbm file you need

hosts_accept_relay = net-dbm;/the/dbm/file

where the DBM file contains keys that are IP addresses. Without the
"net-" it will look up the host *name*, not the address. If you want
masked addresses, use, e.g. net24-dbm.
