I see. You've defined that you yourself are your own smarthost, trying
to send all outbound mail to yourself. Exim sees you're trying to
deliver outbound back to itself and, by default, declares that invalid.

lists.myhost.org being the host you're experiencing this problem on.
unless you messed up the obfuscation.

If another host takes all your outbound mail, that is your smarthost.
If your host is supposed to do the DNS lookups itself and deliver to
each remote domain accordingly, then you do not want to be using a
smarthost configuration.

I know how to set that up in plain Exim, but no idea about the Debian
side of things.
