Exim does not have such a list explicitely, but rather lets you do such
things through its higly flexible configuration.
If you use some third party tool, you should probably ask these people
how to do that.
With plain exim, to exclude specific senders from being block by
blacklists, it's something like that:

deny
   ! senders = mysql;SELECT address FROM whitelist WHERE \
       address='${quote_mysql:$sender_address}'
   dnslists = some.list.host


(the example is taken from spec.txt, btw)
