You're not presenting any new information. You've already been given
about the best advice you can get.

What you need now is to trace the faltering process and see what it's
getting stuck on, either by running a debugging instance of Exim or by
using your platform's flavour of truss, ktrace, ptrace or trace.

If you don't know how to use your platform's syscall tracer, sit down to
its manual page with a cup of coffee.

Seriously, folks here have exhausted all the options. Now it's up to
you to make some progress.

Ciao,
Sheldon.
