I am not a real exim expert - but I fooled myself
once with testing like this too.

You don't want to telnet to localhost, because localhost
is "local" and therefore (possibly) treated differently.

Do your tests by telnetting to the internetface that
you normally receive your email at (from the same box
is not problem; just telnet mail.real.domain 25 should do).
