According to docu there is no difference in behavior between deny and drop at smtp-time, but changed it to deny now. If there's a chance it might be better... ;)

We do a recipient callout to the exchange server we also pass mail on to. But for one of our relay domains verification was not activated on that exchange server the first day. We soon corrected this, but it seems exim had cached the information and went on accepting mails for this domain.. but then could not pass them on to exchange because there the recipient was unknown and the mail rejected. This behavior now stopped by itself :)
Thx for helping, I learned two new useful commands ;)
