Actually the Exim 3.x spec document (which is usually most current (and
detailed) documentation you can get for any version of Exim) says that
rbl_hosts are of type "Host lists" which contain patterns separated by colons.
It does not say to enclose in quotes and examples in spec doc do not show
quotes.
So looks like the way you did it in the end was correct.
