Exim wants to write to the mailboxes as gid 6 but you haven't got them group-writeable. If the group is already "mail", set the mailboxes to 0660.

Every minute might be a bit too frequent, but should work. Do your log files give you any information about what happens when the queue runs?

Are you failing at delivering from outlook.com to local mailboxes, or from outlook.com to some external systems?

If the second, that's probably a good thing.

If the first, then you've somehow not configured exim to accept email for the domains you think you've configured it for. Does the log give any more information than "relay not accepted"?
