There must be a reason for it being frozen. An ordinary wrong address
just gets bounced. Is there a message in its message log?

... because the message is frozen. You could try unfreezing it by hand:
exim -Mt 0zoQjr-0003Uq-00
but if the conditions which caused it to freeze still exist, I expect it
will just get frozen again. Or run a forced delivery
exim -M 0zoQjr-0003Uq-00
If you want to force it to be bounced, use
exim -Mg 0zoQjr-0003Uq-00
You need to be root or an admin user to do these things.
