Your second box wasn't accepting the mail (temporary error; nothing
listening on port 25 or SMTP 4xx errors) when you first tried and Exim
cached the failure.
"exinext 192.168.1.197" to confirm, or "exim -d+hints_lookup whatever"
"exim -qf" to force flush the queue, ignoring previous retry times.
First successful delivery should clear the "host is bad" state.
