This means that you have a DNS problem for tmp_site.com, because the remote server is complaining that the DNS for the _sender_ does not exist. So the problem isn't with your Apache or Exim set-up, but with the DNS provisioning. You probably can't band-aid this in your Exim set-up, since it's remote sites complaining about the DNS published data, insisting that any mail-domain used in a sender address actually exists and can be used for sending mail back to. -- I am keeping international relations on a peaceable footing.
