You have probably just made your server an open relay. Any one who's a
good sender will be able to relay through your server. This is assuming
a standard rcpt acl.

Thanks for the warning. Looks like I did it right, though, as the full
acl part looks like:
...
warn senders = /etc/exim/goodsenders
log_message = whitelisted (goodsenders)
accept domains = +relay_to_domains
senders = /etc/exim/goodsenders
...
Unfortunately "accept" doesn't log anything special, so I had to include
the warning to log the whitelisting.
