I suggest that it should be changed to list the actions taken. This is
what the man page says it does:
The result of an Exim command that uses -bf, provided no errors are
detected, is a list of the actions that Exim would try to take if
presented with the message for real.
and how it behaves with an Exim filter:
$ cat test.filter
# Exim filter
save test.mbox
$ echo "To: nobody@???
body" | exim -bf test.filter
Return-path copied from sender
Sender = roderick@???
Recipient = roderick@???
Testing Exim filter file "test.filter"
Save message to: test.mbox
Filtering set up at least one significant delivery or other action.
No other deliveries will occur.
