You need a smarthost setup. Best way to get this work is to invoke
dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config, you will then be aided through the
configuration.

How about reading the comments in update-exim4.conf.conf, which read:
|# Edit this file and /etc/mailname by hand and execute update-exim4.conf
|# yourself or use 'dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config'
