I have a Debian system runing Exim 4.34 compiled from sources. We have
many domains, MySQL authentication and Maildir format mailboxes. I try
to run the command line below as the exim user, and I get no delivery.
Eventually I get a bounce saying "Unrouteable address".

/usr/sbin/exim4 -oMr odeiavir-ok -bS </tmp/odeiavir-14538/message.txt

The version information from Exim is this:

And this is the message file I try to pipe into exim:
