I tested it when I implemented it, but I am not using it in service.

Yes, that is what it is for.

Looks OK. I take it that it isn't working? What do you see from exim -bp

Without one_time you should just see the name of the mailing list; with
one_time you should see the actual addresses that got deferred.
