Hmmm, sounds like your configuration is hosed somewhere.  The smarthost
router should not be used for local domains.  If you look
in /etc/exim4/conf.d/router/200_exim4-config_primary , you should see
under "smarthost:" the follwing line:

domains = ! +local_domains

This means that the router will not be used, and will be passed on to
another to handle local transport.
In /var/lib/exim4/config.autogenerated , the value of MAIN_LOCAL_DOMAINS
should contain localhost.  If this is true, then is localhost is not
defined in your /etc/hosts file?
