Actually, upon further testing.... seems that just the root@* rule finally works. The rest do not.

I switched out root@ for another valid account on the server, and then had the full @hostname.subdomain.realdomain.com and neither of the hostname nor subdomain rules would fire. I tested them in the
VM having only one rewrite rule active at a time, then used the command line tester interface of Exim.

Perhaps did I still misunderstand about Exim address rewriting rule syntax?

I am thankful,
