Since the only place that tells Exim about your alternative spool
directory is the config file, you need a '-C /path/to/config' every
time you invoke the exim binary.

with a -C /path/to/config... Like below:
exim -bd -q30m -C /usr/local/etc/exim/exim.bdslrelay.conf
exim -bd -q30m -C /usr/local/etc/exim/exim.hostrelay.conf
Thanks
