You told it to. One aspect of exim is that every detail about the
routing and delivery must be specified in the config file. If you
specify it in a different manner than you intend, it will be have in
that manner which you didn't intend.

Personally I'd just put an alias to ":fail:" in /etc/aliases for
system accounts that aren't supposed to receive mail.
