I asked on pkg-exim4-users list about this and get a link that help me
to solve this problem. The link is:
http://wiki.debian.org/PkgExim4UserFAQ#head-48c5470f61731b8daae30fa0d7ef8dc175d92f07
In my case, when I installed Debian Sarge, then I give the hostname
"debian-csp" to my system.
After a year I register the domain csanyipal.info and start to use public
IP address but don't change my hostname from debian-csp to csanyipal.info.
Exim4 use hostname of the system, so when I changed it to my registered
FQDN, mail delivery become successful. (I restarted the system because I
don't know other way how to change the uname -a out.)
