This is a little more than a simple example, but it's what I use on my
servers. The dsearch could easily be replaced with a lsearch of a file, I just
found this easier.
In this example, if a file exists that matches the domain (ie example.com)
then it redirects any mail that made it to this rotuer to
catchall@???, which you can direct anywhere you want in the alias file
or just setup a local user called catchall to accept it.

# This is the last router.
catchall:
driver = redirect
domains = dsearch;/etc/exim/catchalladdress
data = catchall@$domain
cannot_route_message = Unknown user
