That works, after adding the inet_listener to Dovecot. Thank you!

I did have a problem with "hosts = localhost", though:

23:50:31 16287 no IP address for host name localhost: skipping

which resulted in a defer. I had to use 127.0.0.1 (which then appeared
to incur a DNS lookup on that as though it were a name...). Exim
/should/ be able to resolve the name "localhost":

$ cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1   localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4
localhost4.localdomain4
::1         localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6
localhost6.localdomain6

What about a private option for the lmtp transport that told Exim to
follow through with callouts? Something like force_callouts.
