I've now looked at this. I cannot reproduce the problem.

What is the router you are using for handling .forward?

It does not do this for me....

Can you demonstrate this with a delivery run using -d to get debugging
output? (Both for the original delivery, and a subsequent one?)

What does "exim -bp" show for the message after the first delivery
attempt? Is there a "D" next to the local delivery address, or not?
