Okay I have got it to work by moving the blacklist deny in
exim4.conf.template above all other checks in acl_check_rcpt. Bit of a
hack but works.

So I thought it could be one of two accepts:

# Accept if the source is local SMTP (i.e. not over TCP/IP). We do
this by # testing for an empty sending host field.
  accept
    hosts = :


and

Accept if the message comes from one of the hosts for which we are an
  # outgoing relay
  accept
    hosts = +relay_from_hosts
    control = submission/sender_retain


But commenting both out does not work. So it must be something else?
