ayp@valinor:/usr/local/etc/exim/virtual$ exim -bt postmaster1@???
ayp1@localhost
    <-- ayp1@???
    <-- postmaster1@???
  router = localuser, transport = local_delivery
goodboss@???
    <-- ayp1@???
    <-- postmaster1@???
  router = dnslookup, transport = remote_smtp
  host mxs.mail.ru [194.67.23.20] MX=10


This require localhost to be in local_domains.

Also I can route ayp1@??? directly to virtual1 router (see
previous posting; skipped here to avoid excessive quoting).

postmaster1: ayp1
ayp1: ayp1+ayp.msk.ru@???,goodboss@???

ayp@valinor:/usr/local/etc/exim/virtual$ exim -bt postmaster1@???
ayp1+ayp.msk.ru@???
    <-- ayp1@???
    <-- postmaster1@???
  router = virtual1, transport = local_virtual_delivery
goodboss@???
    <-- ayp1@???
    <-- postmaster1@???
  router = dnslookup, transport = remote_smtp
  host mxs.mail.ru [194.67.23.20] MX=10

I think that email addresses in virtual domains should be isolated from
system accounts. They are completely different entities.
