I don't know of any way to induce Exim to truncate normal messages in that
way. (I could cause Exim to truncate bounces uncleanly like that.)

The Mailman list was correct in what they told you (I'm on that list as
well). Mailman doesn't do that.

Unfortunately, neither does Exim.

Take a look at the Exim logs showing one of the truncated messages coming in
to Exim. In particular, the S=somenumber part. That somenumber is the size
of the message in bytes. Is it already truncated by the time it reaches
Exim?
