The first question is - by "locally generated" do you mean
"talks to your exim by some other means than SMTP", or
"talks using SMTP, but from the local machine".
If the latter, I'd be looking first for ident-protocol checks (giving
up after a timeout) second for RDNS issues. Most people find
the former worthless these days, and disable them (look for
"rfc1413_query_timeout" in
http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-the_default_configuration_file.html ).
You could grab a packet trace for the connection.
