1. Upgrade to Exim 4. Exim 3 is really ancient by now.

2. Adding a domains condition to the local_delivery director should suffice.
E.g.

domains = $primary_hostname : localhost

This is because the user names in the alias files are by default qualified
with $primary_hostname, although that can be changed.
