Fortunately for me, I don't use Exim often. The logs look okay to me, but I'm not an expert.
I think your suggestion of dumping the large attachments is a good idea. Do you have a size restriction on your MTA? Also, that should show up in your Mailman logs. Have you looked in your Mailman logs? I'll bet they will indicate that Exim is bouncing the mail due to some reason (such as file too large!). If dumping the large attachments doesn't work, then try copying the whole Qfiles directory to some temporary space and then deleting the waiting qfiles. Follow-up with a test message. If it works then there was something about one of the queued up messages that was blocking. Take care and good Luck.
