The information does not exist, because Exim re-does the aliasing at
every delivery attempt. However, you can change this by setting the
relevant option in the redirect router - I can't remember its name
offhand - something like one_time maybe (memory fade, sorry, and I'm in
Kampala at the moment). That causes the children to be added to the main
recipients list after the first delivery attempt.
