I had these on one of my boxes that has exim set up as a satellite system.
It would relay mail to the main server a few times, then stop with those
errors.

All I did was copy exim.conf from one of my working setups, change the
internal name and re-started exim.
Seems to be OK at the moment..

Is your system set up as a satellite?
