Is the above rule all on one line?

Hmm, it works for me in a slightly different situation.

I am doing the same for emails coming from a certain IP Address. 

I am setting the header which comes out to be (copy and pasted from a
resulting incoming email).

X-SA-Do-Not-Rej: Yes

I have the rule in the file
/etc/exim4/conf.d/acl/20_exim4-config_whitelist_local_deny

### acl/20_exim4-config_whitelist_local_deny
#################################
[snip]

acl_whitelist_local_deny:
  accept
      hosts = ${if exists{CONFDIR/local_host_whitelist}\
                 {CONFDIR/local_host_whitelist}\
		                  {}}
  accept
    senders = ${if exists{CONFDIR/local_sender_whitelist}\
                       {CONFDIR/local_sender_whitelist}\
		                          {}}

  warn    message = X-SA-Do-Not-Rej: Yes
      hosts = 199.237.6.86

In the file /etc/exim4/sa-exim.conf

SAEximRejCond: ${if !eq {$h_X-SA-Do-Not-Rej:}{Yes} {1}{0}}

And no rejects....
