Oops. I pushed the "send" button too quickly there. I've noticed

That should read "to *enable* filtering"...
Wait a minute! That text isn't in the standard Exim distribution. It is
NOT my fault after all. The distribution file says this:
# This director handles forwarding using traditional .forward files.
# If you want it also to allow mail filtering when a forward file
# starts with the string "# Exim filter", uncomment the "filter" option.
So the fault is Debian's.
