read the manual?
host_accept_relay is for hosts/networks for whom you want to always
relay mail (i.e., use the exim server as their smtp server). Check the
names and values of local_domains and relay_domains, as well as the
information in the logs (typically either in /var/log/exim or in /var/log)
And you'll need to setup DNS to route mail for your machine.
