My acl_check_data contains:

  deny  !senders = MAILER-DAEMON@??? : \N^\w+@slando\.\N
        !verify = header_sender


I ran `exim -bh ...` and fed it the spam header you quoted.
My Exim rejected that spam:

>>> check !verify = header_sender
>>> verifying From: header address <<web@???>>
>>> deny: condition test succeeded in ACL "acl_check_data"

...
550-Rejected after DATA: syntax error in 'From:' header when scanning for
550 sender: missing or malformed local part in "<<web@???>>"

This condition catches also messages from your users to mailing lists
(the copy back to the author),
tests users may send to their forwarders (to be forwarded back)
and emails from one of your users to another (directly and via mailing lists).

I think that in the spam you quoted the second Received is fake,
and that the spam was sent by a Windows bot/trojan directly to
main.network.szczecin.pl. My Exim would selectively greylist this spam
(even before acl_check_data) because client-186-37-26-103.imovil.entelpcs.cl
doesn't resolve back to 186.37.26.103 (also, HELO looks dynamic).
Usually greylisting of suspicious sending IPs stops Windows bot spam.
