Sure, just add the whitelist to your deny rule:

    deny    message       = host is listed in $dnslist_domain
            !senders      = /etc/exim/exim.whitelist
            dnslists      = bl.spamcop.net:dnsbl.njabl.org:relays.ordb.org


exim.whitelist may contain complete domains (example.com), single
addresses (user@???), wildcard patterns (postmaster@*), and
regular expressions, one entry per line.
See section 10.2 ADDRESS LISTS of the Exim 4 spec.

    deny    sender_domains = yahoo.com : hotmail.com
            !verify        = sender/callout[=options]


You could also use a file of domains (sender_domains = /etc/exim/file).

Callouts work well only with domains which do not accept random
addresses. That means that doing callouts against Yahoo or AOL (to
name just two) is mostly pointless. Hotmail/MSN however works great,
*if* the spammers haven't gone to such lengths as creating a valid
account first, which seems to happen more and more often.
