Add:

log_selector = +smtp_confirmation

to the global section of the exim configuration file. Despite what the
documentation says about adding the confirmation string only to <=
lines, it also works for => lines, ie. you will see what the remote
host said upon accepting the message.

Note to Philip: correct the manual, section 45.15
