Got it!
Fred, thanks for your help.
Right basically, I put an IP address in square brackets for my
primary_hostname in /etc/exim4.conf.template
It now seems to work ok.

That makes no sense. You had no problem (other than the delay) using
@shinyblue.net sender and recipient addresses before, right?
Changing primary_hostname shouldn't affect that.
What did you set primary_hostname to? If you set it to
shinyblue.net, re-read my earlier post.
