How domains are routed in Exim 4 depends solely on the routers. This
means that +local_domains is only a list of domains, nothing more,
nothing less. There is no longer a separation between local and
remote domains as in Exim 3. If you want routers to act on specific
domains, put these in the domains precondition.

You have probably the default dnslookup router in your configuration,
which looks more or less like this:
dnslookup:
driver = dnslookup
domains = ! +local_domains
[...]
This router will be run for every domain that is not in
+local_domains (and that includes your +local_spamcheck!). Trying to
remotely route a local domain fails if the DNS lookup discovers that
Exim would have to send the mail to itself, of course. Try to add the
+local_spamcheck to the dnslookup router:
domains = ! +local_domains : ! +local_spamcheck
This might help, but your routing setup will also require careful
setting of no_more and verify_only/no_verify options, in order to work
as you expect it.
