I do not remember what the default 'timeout' is when exim_tidydb, but I
believe that it is fairly high, if you are running a script daily then
you should use it with the -t option of "-t 24h" to clear out entries older
than 1 day. You can also use the exim_dumpdb to see what is there.

So I checked the manual....

The exim_tidydb utility program is used to tidy up the contents of the
hints databases. If run with no options, it removes all records from a
database that are more than 30 days old. The cutoff date can be altered by
means of the -t option, which must be followed by a time. For example, to
remove all records older than a week from the retry database:

exim_tidydb -t 7d /var/spool/exim retry
