The config file, and any includes, are only loaded when an exim process
starts up. For messages received by processes forked from a daemon,
the usual way of handling SMTP reception, that means when the daemon
is started (or restarted, or told to reload).
You can get per-use updates by using a filename as the list (or part of
the list). See
http://exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-domain_host_address_and_local_part_lists.html#SECTfilnamlis
Obviously there is a performance cost to doing that.
