One reason why you may not be getting as much help as you'd expect is
because your messages are flagged as spam by SpamAssassin running with a
default threshold of 5:

X-Spam-Score: 5.8 (+++++)
X-Spam-Report: 5.8/5.0

The log you showed us, shows that your message would be accepted for
delivery.

So... Send a message for real, via SMTP connection from the IP address
you specified in -bh. Make a note of the Message-Id you're given. Wait
for a couple of minutes, then do exim -Mvl <Message-Id>, e.g.

    exim -Mvl 19uvC5-00081A-0A


If the message hasn't been delivered yet, you'll be shown why not.

If it has been delivered, just search for the Message-Id in Exim's
mainlog, e.g.

    exigrep 19uvC5-00081A-0A < /var/log/exim/mainlog
