Since you're using Exim 4, you can just add

! hosts = *.dyndns.org

or something similar to your ACL rule that does the DNSBL lookups. This will
keep those hosts from being looked up, but only if their reverse DNS resolves to
the dyndns.org domain. This will not take into account the HELO data supplied,
but I wouldn't want to rely on that anyway :-).
