Exim can emit an address-list per:

If we're speaking of a Delivered-To: header, then no I did not.
Exim does not currently have a specific facility for generating
one.

Perhaps you were thinking of my description of Envelope-to:

Yes, thanks for the correction.  Just to be sure I'm not missing
some important detail, I think you're saying that in Exim there
is no "Delivered-To:"-based or similar loop detection mechanism,
or least nothing built-in.

And the "Envelope-To:" header is for fetchmail and the like to
demultiplex multi-drop mailboxes.  It is not a loop detection
feature.
