That's a bit weird. I take it there is no occurrence of "system-filter" in the
config? Exim uses "system-filter" as a bogus parent address to remember that
$recipients is allowed in pipe commands, but it certainly shouldn't deliver
anything to that address. Can you show the full contents of the system filter
as well as the mail_spool transport options?
