You could use a traditional aliases file for this

Put this in routers before your usual internal router

aliases_file:
  driver         = redirect
  allow_fail
  allow_defer
  data           = ${lookup{$local_part}lsearch{/etc/aliases}}
  domains        = +internal_domains
  file_transport = file_tran

Then populate /etc/aliases:

gocompare: gerdesj, gerdesr, me@???

Nice and simple and scraped straight from the docs (I think - I set
this up many years ago) Ah here we go: http://www.exim.org/exim-html-cu
rrent/doc/html/spec_html/ch-the_redirect_router.html  Entries without a
@domain get your internal default and as you can
see, you can also mix and match with external.  I think comments work
too.

I've re-read your post and can't see if I am missing something in your
requirements.

Cheers
