As long as you have "verify = sender", there needs to be a Router which handles the address in question (provided that your ACLs aren't accepting the message before you hit that clause). So what do you get from: $ exim -bt name@ip-address ? You want to see something like: $ exim -bt [email protected] [email protected] is undeliverable: Unrouteable address If you get a response which includes "router = foo", what is the definition of foo? If it's dnslookup, then I think you have a resolver doing something funny, faking up A records when the query looks like an IP address.
