Of course. I reloaded exim several times to ensure.
I found that one host in the list did not exist, is's name was misspelled.
I corrected this error and everything started to work as expected.
I may only conclude that if at least one host in the list could not be resolved,
the entire list does not work. I tested this a couple of times - and I see
the same result. Probably there is a bug? I tried it with exim 4.62,
but I do not know if the latest version has the same behaviour.
