The ACL you wrote is evaluated at SMTP RCPT time. When you use the 'mail' command, you're calling the exim binary directly and not submitting via SMTP, so your ACL is never reached. There's probably another Debian config file you need to use to cause something to show up in the ACLs that are evaluated for non-SMTP mail - check your Debian documentation or the mailing list referred to within for this.
