As root:

# exim -d -bt user at domain-name

will give you a very detailled report of the routing decision making
process. You can then go through your exim configuration and work out which
router isn't working the way you think it should. You should be able to see
if exim is able to communicate successfully with the mysql daemon, for
example, and what query it sends.

It generates quite a lot of output so you probably want to capture it to a
file:

# exim -d -bt user at domain-name 2>debug.out         # sh or bash
# exim -d -bt user at domain-name >&debug.out         # csh
