The domain name willingham-law.com does not have its MX records
configured properly. They have used an IP address instead of a host
name in the host field of the MX record. By default, Exim will not
deliver to a host that has its DNS misconfigured like this.
If you really want to deliver to hosts like this, despite the
misconfiguration, you can add "allow_mx_to_ip" to your Exim config file.
