Those addition domain names are either in your /etc/resolv.conf as
search domains, in your /etc/hosts file as aliases for localhost, or in
your 0.0.127.rev zone files. Very much a DNS/resolver issue.

You have a script or program sending mail via SMTP to localhost (from
localhost) on your system.

Every time Exim gets a SMTP connection it does a reverse DNS lookup and
then forward lookup of each of the answers - if it's configured to do so.
