I don't know anything about this new data option, but under older exims
you could have a director like:
----------------
ldap_forward:
driver = aliasfile
search_type = ldap
query
="ldap:///o=Foo,c=US?mailforwardingaddress?sub?(mail=$local_part@$domain)"
----------------
(that last "query" line may have wrapped)
to lookup a "mailforwardingaddress" attribute based on an entry's "mail"
attribute.
