Ok, I've now set up my routers as follows, so as to validate the internal
recipients address:
verify_recipient:
driver = redirect
data = ${lookup{$local_part}cdb{/usr/exim/jlpcdb/jlp.cdb}}
domains = +relay_to_domains
verify_recipient
self = pass
pass_router = send_internal
no_more
send_internal:
driver = manualroute
transport = remote_smtp
route_list = * xxx.xx.xxx.xxx
hosts_randomize = true
However, that then says everything is an unrouteable address. If the local
part of the address is valid it should pass back the word 'mail', so how
do I put this into the 'data =' line?
Many thanks,
Alex

It wouldn't.
verify = recipient runs the destination address through the routers (with
the verify bit set), so what you actually need to be doing is causing
the CDB to be searched at routing time. Without knowing more about how
your configuration works, this is difficult to provide example code for.
