So there is the ALL: PARANOID directive in hosts.deny.
Exim runs from inetd.conf with this line:
#:MAIL: Mail, news and uucp services.
smtp stream tcp nowait mail /usr/sbin/exim exim -bs
netstat -atp |grep smtp shows (as root):
tcp 0 0 *:smtp *:*
LISTEN 19551/inetd
Do these hosts you are connecting from have both forward and reverse DNS
records? This would block them with a line in /var/log/daemon about
refused connections. If there are no such logs then @home may just
disallow port 25 incoming.
