Presumably Exim thinks they are valid recipients, so there must be a
router somewhere within your configuration which is validating them.

Run Exim in debug mode to see what's going on:

exim -d+verify -bv recipient

where recipient is one of the recipients which is accepted but shouldn't
be. The output should tell you which router is accepting and routing the
recipient.
