Yes, it is the same version.
I've attached my whole configuration file (it isn't that big, and maybe
I've made an
error somewhere else that influences the settings somehow)
Please ignore the MySQL stuff.

# MAIN CONFIGURATION SETTINGS #
######################################################################
# Specify your host's canonical name here. This should normally be the fully
# qualified "official" name of your host. If this option is not set, the
# uname() function is called to obtain the name.
# primary_hostname =
# Specify the domain you want to be added to all unqualified addresses
# here. An unqualified address is one that does not contain an "@" character
# followed by a domain. For example, "caesar@???" is a fully qualified
# address, but the string "caesar" (i.e. just a login name) is an unqualified
# email address. Unqualified addresses are accepted only from local callers by
# default. See the receiver_unqualified_{hosts,nets} options if you want
# to permit unqualified addresses from remote sources. If this option is
# not set, the primary_hostname value is used for qualification.
# qualify_domain =
# If you want unqualified recipient addresses to be qualified with a different
# domain to unqualified sender addresses, specify the recipient domain here.
# If this option is not set, the qualify_domain value is used.
# qualify_recipient =
# Specify your local domains as a colon-separated list here. If this option
# is not set (i.e. not mentioned in the configuration file), the
# qualify_recipient value is used as the only local domain. If you do not want
# to do any local deliveries, uncomment the following line, but do not supply
# any data for it. This sets local_domains to an empty string, which is not
# the same as not mentioning it at all. An empty string specifies that there
# are no local domains; not setting it at all causes the default value (the
# setting of qualify_recipient) to be used.
local_domains = localhost:mysql;select domain_name from domain where domain_name='$key'
# If you want to accept mail addressed to your host's literal IP address, for
# example, mail addressed to "user@???", then uncomment the
# following line, or supply the literal domain(s) as part of "local_domains"
# above. You also need to comment "forbid_domain_literals" below. This is not
# recommended for today's Internet.
# local_domains_include_host_literals
# The following line prevents Exim from recognizing addresses of the form
# "user@???" that is, with a "domain literal" (an IP address)
# instead of a named domain. The RFCs still require this form, but it makes
# little sense to permit mail to be sent to specific hosts by their IP address
# in the modern Internet, and this ancient format has been used by those
# seeking to abuse hosts by using them for unwanted relaying. If you really
# do want to support domain literals, remove the following line, and see
# also the "domain_literal" router below.
forbid_domain_literals
# No local deliveries will ever be run under the uids of these users (a colon-
# separated list). An attempt to do so gets changed so that it runs under the
# uid of "nobody" instead. This is a paranoic safety catch. Note the default
# setting means you cannot deliver mail addressed to root as if it were a
# normal user. This isn't usually a problem, as most sites have an alias for
# root that redirects such mail to a human administrator.
never_users = root
# The use of your host as a mail relay by any host, including the local host
# calling its own SMTP port, is locked out by default. If you want to permit
# relaying from the local host, you should set

#
# If you want to permit relaying through your host from certain hosts or IP
# networks, you need to set the option appropriately, for example
#
# host_accept_relay = my.friends.host : 131.111.0.0/16
#
# If you are an MX backup or gateway of some kind for some domains, you must
# set relay_domains to match those domains. This will allow any host to
# relay through your host to those domains.
#
# See the section of the manual entitled "Control of relaying" for more
# information.
# The setting below causes Exim to do a reverse DNS lookup on all incoming
# IP calls, in order to get the true host name. If you feel this is too
# expensive, you can specify the networks for which a lookup is done, or
# remove the setting entirely.
host_lookup = 0.0.0.0/0
# By default, Exim expects all envelope addresses to be fully qualified, that
# is, they must contain both a local part and a domain. If you want to accept
# unqualified addresses (just a local part) from certain hosts, you can specify
# these hosts by setting one or both of
#
# receiver_unqualified_hosts =
# sender_unqualified_hosts =
#
# to control sender and receiver addresses, respectively. When this is done,
# unqualified addresses are qualified using the settings of qualify_domain
# and/or qualify_recipient (see above).
# By default, Exim does not make any checks, other than syntactic ones, on
# incoming addresses during the SMTP dialogue. This reduces delays in SMTP
# transactions, but it does mean that you might accept messages with unknown
# recipients, and/or bad senders.
# Uncomment this line if you want incoming recipient addresses to be verified
# during the SMTP dialogue. Unknown recipients are then rejected at this stage,
# and the generation of a failure message is the job of the sending host.
# receiver_verify
# Uncomment this line if you want incoming sender addresses (return-paths) to
# be verified during the SMTP dialogue. Verification can normally only check
# that the domain exists.
# sender_verify
# Exim contains support for the Realtime Blocking List (RBL) that is being
# maintained as part of the DNS. See
http://maps.vix.com/rbl/ for background.
# Uncommenting the first line below will make Exim reject mail from any
# host whose IP address is blacklisted in the RBL at maps.vix.com. Some
# others have followed the RBL lead and have produced other lists: DUL is
# a list of dial-up addresses, and ORBS is a list of open relay systems. The
# second line below checks all three lists.
# rbl_domains = rbl.maps.vix.com
# rbl_domains = rbl.maps.vix.com:dul.maps.vix.com:relays.orbs.org
# If you want Exim to support the "percent hack" for all your local domains,
# uncomment the following line. This is the feature by which mail addressed
# to x%y@z (where z is one of your local domains) is locally rerouted to
# x@y and sent on. Otherwise x%y is treated as an ordinary local part.
