You'll want a "pipe" transport to deliver via maildrop -

... chosen by a router conditioned on the existence of the user's
.mailfilter file.   See "condition" in
    http://exim.org/exim-html-4.72/doc/html/spec_html/ch15.html
and "${if "   and  "exists {<filename>}" in
    http://exim.org/exim-html-4.72/doc/html/spec_html/ch11.htm


Probably an "accept" router, with the condition, will suffice.

If that router does not fire, control passes to the next router in
the routers part of the config. This would be your standard
deliver-to-maildir, using an "appendfile" transport. Again an
accept router may suffice, so long as you're gotten rid of all
non-locally-deliverable addresses by now.


As usual, there's many ways to skin this cat.
