"addresee unknown" is not a built-in message in Exim. I tend to use the
word "recipient". Therefore, this bounce (though clearly generated by
Exim), is getting its error message from somewhere external.
Do you have "addressee unknown" as a :fail: message somewhere in your
configuration? In your system or user filter? In some alias file?

Is the text "addressee unknown" anywhere in AMaViS?
