Most likely you need to add localhost to the list of allowed relays.

In exim version 3.0 and above, you need an entry like
	host_accept_relay = 127.0.0.1/32

[host_accept_relay is a colon separated list of phrases - put that 
entry at the front since its a specific accept and doesn't force a DNS 
lookup]

For exim versions less than 3 add that entry to net_accept_relay [from 
memory].
