While that does make sense I can seem to get exim to let me put a pipe
command in that section. I not understanding what im doing wrong.


I wanted it to run right at

drop dnslists =  relays.ordb.org :  bl.spamcop.net
       message = your mail server $sender_host_address is in a black list \
              at $dnslist_domain ($dnslist_text)


But its like pipe isn't allowed in that section.

Probably because exim is not running as root? I've thought about this
myself, but my firewall is not on the local machine.

How about trying sudo? I did this at work to automatically update the
mcafee virus definition files when I get an email from mcafee saying that
they released an updated version.
