Ok, would be good to see at which point the connection drops.
I'd use tcpdump to watch the connection(s)

    tcpdump -i <interface> -n -u -w /tmp/log.pcap 'host 82.71.51.200'

So, direct connection to the customers (hidden) MX 82.71.51.200 does not
work? - when using Exim

Connection to the your other datacenter does not work - but the failure
is limited to the domain in question, for other domains it works? - when
using Exim.

In addition to the tcpdump above you could use

    exim -d -M <message-id>


and try to get an idea about what is happening.

Wilde guesses, none of these may be sufficient, it's just to explore and
investigate the behaviour…

    - tls
    - ident callbacks
    - different user (telnet you're using as root, exim is running as an
      unpriviliged user)
