Since you're 4.82 based you're probably safest readding

http://www.exim.org/exim-html-4.82/doc/html/spec_html/ch-string_expansions.html

rather than the latest. It makes no difference for this question,
though, and you probably won't like the answer.

You found 'em. Assuming that the distro have made no additions.

Only the documented ones are recognised.

You're welcome to raise an RFE suggesting more support.

There's an unmerged branch sitting around which passes through
any unrecognised {...} prefixes for the OS to handle. It's
called "dubious", and the comments read like the author wasn't
happy on the safety of it.
