Your address_file transport has 'user = root' set. Your exim binary
was compiled (for your safety) to disallow transports running as root
using the 'never_users' compile-time option.

You should adjust the transport such that it writes to a file which is
writeable by the exim user or by some other user you can set with
user= or check_local_user.
