More detail needed. One of Exim's standard tests contains this ACL:

  drop   log_message = forcibly dropped
         hosts = 10.9.8.9
  accept logwrite = $sender_host_address accepted by connect ACL


and in the log I see

1999-03-02 09:44:33 H=[10.9.8.9] U=CALLER rejected connection in "connect" ACL: forcibly dropped

So what is different in your setup? Can you post debug output showing
the lack of a message?
