That's exactly what you told it to do. The extracts return nothing in
your transport, so the dir is /var/data///Maildir/new/* which translates
to the above.

# try something like this line
local_parts = ${extract {login}{MD_RCPT_USER_DATA}}
If that syntax is correct, then the router should fail for non-existent
users. As long as no other router accepts it, your server should not
accept the message (provided you haven't removed the verify=recipients
line in the acl).
If you want to accept the mail, but send an auto-reply to non-existent
users, try using an identical router with a ! (not) in the local_parts
line above and send it to an auto-reply transport.
