Go to WHM's Exim conf editor and look for the lookuphost, it may be under a different name but should be obvious, directive and set it to off or no, whichever is appropriate. Also, go to SSH and ping a domain to ensure that your resolver setting is correct. If it cannot resolve the domain to an IP, your problem is not with Exim, but is your resolver.

make sure your resolvers are correct.
you can test it by typing "host google.com" via ssh... If it drops back to the command prompt, or just hangs, then its definitely your resolvers...
If it _IS_ the resolvers, look in your /etc/resolv.conf and make sure the resolvers match what they should be (its based on what DC your server is in
