Also, how can I parse Exim log file to know which ISP( eg. hotmail.com, gmail.com) is blocking my server IP?

Exim logs message arrivals and deliveries in a compact format, described here, in the online documentation. The log files are configurable so you can add or remove information using the log_selector option.
