Hello,
Afaict
mv 250_exim4-config_lowuid 850_exim4-config_lowuid
would take care of this issue.
I think it must be possible to redirect system-users by /etc/aliases
and it _should_ be possible by default to redirect by ~/.forward or
.procmailrc, therefore making lowuid the last router before local_user
would be the right thing to do.
I have also been wondering whether lowuid should special case uid 0,
since stuff is redirected there by default and we special case it
anyway (mmm_mail4root). However I think it is not necessary, due to
the {! match_ip{$sender_host_address}{:@[]}} precondition.
