Do a simulated connection and look in the debug output and see what
the problem is:

exim -bh ip.that.should.reject
EHLO hostname.of.that.ip
MAIL FROM:<valid_sender@???>
RCPT TO:<valid_recipient@???>

At this point, the rcpt acl will be processed, which is where your RBL
is checked. Look in the debug output and find that specific acl
stanza and see what the result is. Post the section here if you have
difficulty interpreting the results.
