The docs for exim-filters talk about all of Exim's string-expansions being
available.  There's an expansion-condition "exists".  Use that, in a
"${if <condition> {result-if-true} {result-if-false}}" string-expansion,
to get something that an exim-filter "if" condition can test.

(and, as Viktor points out: fix that potential loop)
