Is there a problem with something like
if $sender_address is specific.user@??? or
$recipients contains specific.user@???
then
unseen deliver another.mail.address
endif
in a system filter?

Ah! That's more complicated. But you can still do lookups in the filter
file:
if ${lookup{$sender_address}dbm{/some/file}{$value}{}} is not ""
then
unseen deliver ${lookup{$sender_address}dbm{/some/file}{$value}}
else
if foranyaddress $recipients
(${lookup{$thisaddress}dbm{/some/file}{$value}{}} is not "")
then
unseen deliver ${lookup{$thisaddress}dbm{/some/file}{$value}}
endif
endif
It is messy to have to repeat the lookup, but it won't be inefficient,
because Exim caches the results of successful lookups.
Mind you, I haven't tested this at all!
