Thanks to all who replied, after reading the following documentation I
realized the error in my configuration:

http://www.exim.org/exim-html-4.40/doc/html/spec_14.html#IX1117 -
dns_ipv4_lookup documentation
http://www.exim.org/exim-html-4.40/doc/html/spec_10.html#IX731 -
domain_list type

The above directive didn't work becaues it only matched the "true"
domainname which obviously doesn't help my situation. The following
line solved all my problems.

dns_ipv4_lookup = *

Thanks again,
