I suggest you should try asking on the debian exim4 mailing list -
debian use a customised configuration for exim which makes it
difficult for those of us not in a debian environment to understand
the interactions within that environment:-

That clearly says sendmail (which is not the standard debian mail
package so that comment looks suspicious to me...). newaliases is
also normally a sendmail specific thing (although it can just be a db
building wrapper script). So I start to suspect the config file you
are looking at is not part of the exim config.
