No.  It runs from /etc/rc2.d/S20exim

I'm betting you need to change some of your local addresses in exim.conf from
domain names to IPs.

Every config option that requires it to check a domain name at startup time is
going to do a DNS lookup.  In particular, I set  "local_domains" and
"host_accept_relay" to use the usual IPs for the laptop (note, you really may
need to rewrite those depending on the network you're attached to).  I changed
one of these specifically because of hearing about this situation - I think it
was "host_accept_relay".
