In exim4 4.50's default config, the blacklists are processed early,
while relay_domains is handled late. There is no reason why the
blacklists shouldn't work for relayed messages as well.

Please experiment with exim4 -d -bh <blacklisted address>, maybe this
does help.

Please not that you shouldn't check with a postmaster recipient and
not from a host that your mail server relays for, these two special
cases are handled earlier than the black lists.

Recommended reading: acl_check_rcpt and spec.txt chapter 39.

Greetings
Marc
