You can't do that with Exim. RTFM on the aliasfile director. I bet if
you sent mail to the literal address '*@myfreedomainhost.net', though,
it would work.
You probably want to use a smartuser director; make it the last director
in your config file to catch anything. RTFM again.

From the newaliases(8) man page:
This is a simple shell script calling /usr/lib/sendmail
with the -bi option. It is provided for compatibility with
the sendmail program. It is not actually necessary to
notify exim of changes to /etc/aliases at all.
