Either, you save all possible addresses on your mailhub (with some cdb
database or something similar) that would make it possible to use
something like this in your acl:

require domains = +relay_to_domains
         recipients = cdb;/etc/exim/knownrecipients.cdb


OR, you're keen and do recipient verification with callouts. With the
callout-cache since exim4.11 this shouldn't be a big problem to your server.

require verify = recipient/defer_ok/callout=10s/callout_defer_ok

You'll will need the defer_ok settings, otherwise your backup is useless.
