The combination of your described symptoms, the debug output, and the 
ACL snippets.

So what did it look like for case 3?  And what did the main log show?

That can't be.  Time to question your assumptions (identifying them 
is the hard part).  The evidence seems to show that you're not 
talking to the exim config you think you are, or something else 
unlooked-for is going on.  Meddling firewall?  Failing to HUP exim 
after config file changes?  Connecting to a different machine?

All seem unlikely for one reason or another, but it will be obvious 
once you spot it.  tcpdump or ethereal to see what's really going on 
on the server, compared to what your MUA is logging, may shed some 
light.
