Okay, so since the mails being frozen are destined for the local host,
the problem is that +local_domains does not include the IP address
literals for the local host.
I did wonder where local_domains_include_host_literals was coming into
this, since it's not a current Exim option. I think it might have been
an Exim 3 option, but that's so long ago that I've forgotten the
details.
What you need to do instead is ensure that the local_domains domainlist
includes the IP address literals corresponding to the local host. To do
that, you just include the special item @[] in the domainlist
definition.
If you look at spec.txt and just search for domain_literals then there
aren't many bits to read and the allow_domain_literals documentation
explains all this for you.
