When encountering such problems, it is always helpful to run Exim with
debugging turned on, but I think I see the problem:

The userforward router has no sieve_vacation_directory set. That
directory stores the rate limiting information, similar to the once
databases Exim uses. If you don't provide one, vacation will be disabled.
