I *think* that's the RFC1413 ident, but as this isn't something I've
looked into in any great detail then someone might have to correct me :)

That's qmail's version of "relaying denied".
Basically, it looks to me like you got an incoming message from:
Your Exim process then did a callout to their MX (218.102.48.123).
Presumably cnfax.com are either spammers, and/or have misconfigured DNS,
and/or 218.102.24.123 is a misconfigured MX which thinks it isn't an MX
for their domain. Therefore 218.102.48.123 said "sorry, don't know that
domain [cnfax.com]".
The key line here is Exim's fairly verbose statement which is easier to
read if you break it down a bit:
> sender verify fail (the envelope sender couldn't be verified)
> for <sales@cn fax.com> (this is the envelope sender)
> response to "RCPT TO:<sales@???>" (this is the callout command sent by Exim)
