Thanks for your report. I've been able to reproduce the issue and by
digging a bit deeper I found two relevant bugs in Debian [1,2]. Also
relevant is the changelog of the Debian exim4 package [3].
In my understanding this is what happened:
* exim4 4.92 broke the compatibility with sa-exim [4].
* exim4 4.92-5 (Debian package) dropped the patch to enable local_scan and has
been
declared incompatible ("Conflicts:") with sa-exim [3].
* By including api-limitation.patch sa-exim 4.2.1-17 is made compatible with
exim4 4.92.
* exim4 4.92-7 is uploaded to Debian unstable with local_scan enabled again
and the
incompatibility with sa-exim removed.
The newer packages are already in Ubuntu Eoan (currently in development).
This bug can be fixed in Disco by porting those packages back.
