Make sure your exim configuration matches with the version of exim you have
installed. Make sure there is no .dpkg-new laying around in /etc/exim4. Check /usr/share/doc/exim4-base/changelog.gz.

Notably, in /usr/share/doc/exim4-base/README.UPDATING.gz:

# Exim version 4.94
# -----------------
#
# Some Transports now refuse to use tainted data in constructing their delivery
# location; this WILL BREAK configurations which are not updated accordingly.
# In particular: any Transport use of $local_part which has been relying upon
# check_local_user far away in the Router to make it safe, should be updated to
# replace $local_part with $local_part_data.
