Was dafür spricht, dass die Option "nur die Protokollierung" verhindert - 
also die bringt es somit nicht.

Und Holgers Vorschlag für die exim Konfiguration in der Main/Global-Sektion 
von /var/spool/exim/configure:

allow_domain_literals = true

Das erfordert aber wohl noch eine weitere Änderung:

 If this option is set, the RFC 2822 domain literal format is permitted in 
email addresses. The option is not set by default, because the domain 
literal format is not normally required these days, and few people know 
about it. It has, however, been exploited by mail abusers.

Unfortunately, it seems that some DNS black list maintainers are using this 
format to report black listing to postmasters. If you want to accept 
messages addressed to your hosts by IP address, you need to set 
allow_domain_literals true, and also to add @[] to the list of local domains 
(defined in the named domain list local_domains in the default 
configuration). This “magic string” matches the domain literal form of all 
the local host’s IP addresses. 

Ich vermute mal, dass "@[]" muss dann in die /etc/exim-localdomais.

Danach mit "service restart mail" den Dienst neu starten.
