The pipe command will not be run *until Exim delivers a message to that
address*. It does not run during filtering. Therefore, you cannot get it
to run while filter testing. Instead, run a command like this:

exim -d someone@???
some message
.

where someone@??? is a recipient that will trigger the filter.
