Try this instead:

sender_verify_reject = true
sender_reject = @@lsearch*;/usr/exim316/blocked.senders
prohibition_message = "${lookup{$prohibition_reason}lsearch {/usr/exim316/reject.messages}{${expand:$value}}}"

where blocked.senders looks like

aol.com        SuccessisGreat:GreatSuccess
mailgate.lifeminders.com    *
*            admin__


[multiple mailboxes in a domain, everything from a domain and everything
bearing an admin__ in the envelope, which is a virus generated message]

reject.messages (in prohibition reason) looks like

sender_reject:          Get Lost - No Spammers Allowed Here|Contact postmaster\@example\.com
host_accept_relay:      Host $sender_fullhost not allowed to relay|through $primary_hostname|Contact postmaster\@example\.com
