When you upgraded exim did you let it upgrade the conf file snippets, or
just some of them - I'd guess that it's a missing part of the config,
you're getting the mail because it'll try to do a reload as part of
cron.daily, and that's going to trigger the automatic configuration
again. See what you get out of update-exim4.conf which should tell you
more.
