You probably have a RCPT ACL with something like this:

  require    verify = sender


which means, "if Exim cannot verify the sender address, reject all
recipients".

You probably somethine like this:

  deny       hosts  = !127.0.0.1 : !1.2.3.0/24
            !verify = sender


which means, "if the message originated somewhere other than 127.0.0.1
or 1.2.3.0/24, *and* Exim cannot verify the sender address, then reject
all recipients".

RTFM for more info -- the spec has a whole chapter on ACLs. Count on
re-reading it several times; it's tricky to understand at first, but
once you get the hang of it, ACLs are loads of fun.

Of course, you'll have to use your local netmask instead of 1.2.3.0/24.
