I will guess only, but exim is forking transport process for delivery,
but that is not liked by systemd (in really i read from its author,
that he consider forking as bad). By that, systemd kill all remaining
processes after/when unit stops (and do not wait for forked processes)
by default.
You have several options:
+ use forking type unit (not appropriate in all cases)
+ disable kill in unit (not very good idea)
+ setup sendwait in mailx (not with bsd-mailx)
+ use exim directly with -odf
+ use cron for repeated tasks
For timers (repeated tasks) requiring mails i usually use cron (as i
use bsd-mailx, without sendwait suport). While systemd has a lot of
useful features (as init system), the lack of simple notification in it
is its big minus.
regards
