I don't know. Callbacks were introduced in Exim 3.20 in November 2000;
callforwards did not arrive till Exim 4, just over a year later.
(Strictly, callbacks were "released" in a testing release called 3.168.
I don't have details of its release date. 3.16 was released in Auguest
2000, so it was sometime between August and November, if it matters that
much.)

You'll need to search for any evidence of anyone else doing this any
earlier.
