That's just for 'exim -bs', not 'nc localhost 25'

To also accept everything submitted by SMTP from localhost, you'd want
something like:

accept hosts = localhost :
or
accept hosts = <; 127.0.0.1 ; ::1 ;

Btw Tim you seem to have dropped the person who asked the question from
the recipients, which isn't very helpful.
