Its really hard to diagnose this correctly from outside. However I
would suggest you look at the ACL on rcpt - whatever acl_smtp_rcpt is
set to - which is most likely to make sure you are not special casing
the null sender (ie sender = )

Try using exim -bh <ip> (and an SMTP conversation), probably with
debug switched on (ie -dacl or -d all) to see whats happening in this
case.
