You need to force the delivery out of the queue or remove the hint.
Exim is not even trying to send here.

And please do not obfuscate logs, it happens to often that there are
obvious hints in that kind of data.

It might also help to run a delivery attempt from the command line
with debugging enabled.

Greetings
Marc
