No, Exim 4.41 gives an appropriate message all by itself, depending on
the reason for the failure:
smtp_respond(550, FALSE, string_sprintf(
testflag(sender_verified_failed, af_verify_pmfail)?
"Postmaster verification failed while checking <%s>\n%s\n"
"Several RFCs state that you are required to have a postmaster\n"
"mailbox for each mail domain. This host does not accept mail\n"
"from domains whose servers reject the postmaster address."
:
testflag(sender_verified_failed, af_verify_nsfail)?
"Callback setup failed while verifying <%s>\n%s\n"
"The initial connection, or a HELO or MAIL FROM:<> command was\n"
"rejected. Refusing MAIL FROM:<> does not help fight spam, disregards\n"
"RFC requirements, and stops you from receiving standard bounce\n"
"messages. This host does not accept mail from domains whose servers\n"
"refuse bounces."

"Verification failed for <%s>\n%s",
