I do not know the exim filter language good enough to answer the
question directly. I'd use:

    begin routers
        …
        …


        log:
            driver = accept
            … some conditions …
            transport = log


    begin transports


        log:
            driver = appendfile
            file = /tmp/log-${substr_4:$tod_logfile}




    Best regards from Dresden/Germany
    Viele Grüße aus Dresden
