More information needed:

- what style of logfile naming is in use (just sequence numbers, or
dates, or something else?)

- please share the logrotate.d entry for exim

To exclude any systemd issues, you can:

- remove the debian logrotate.d bit for exim,

- create your own somewhere else, say in /root, and

- run logrotate from a cron job, with explicit arguments pointing to
that config bit and to a separate state file
