I don't understand this piece of log.
Please follow this instruction:
1. open one terminal and send the command:
# tail -f /var/log/exim/main_log

2. open the second one and send the command:
# echo test | mail -s 'test' username@hostname.com -c a.noventa@hstname.com,3da.noventa@hostname.com

And then send me the log from first terminal window.

This log may be /var/log/exim_mainlog on one OS, and /var/log/exim/mainlog on another
