Hello Stephen,
thanks for for reply. I added +MAILMAN_DOMAINS whereever I thought it might 
help. I am still getting the same error: relay not permitted. Here are 
excerpts from my exim config:
[..]

.endif
domainlist relay_to_domains = MAIN_RELAY_TO_DOMAINS

.ifndef MAIN_RELAY_NETS
MAIN_RELAY_NETS = DEBCONFrelay_netsDEBCONF
.endif
