I have seen a discussion similar to what I am seeing with 4.95:

[exim-dev] [Bug 2622] New: bounce_return_linesize_limit not honoured for
headers (mail-archive.com)
<https://www.mail-archive.com/exim-dev@exim.org/msg12295.html>

However, I do not see a solution to it.

It would be great if such messages were rejected by default.
