update-exim4.conf (the shell script) takes the contents of
update-exim4.conf.conf (the configuration files) and generates a bunch
of macros (including MAIN_LOCAL_DOMAINS). These macros get inserted
into the file generated from /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.template at the
place where UPEX4CmacrosUPEX4C=1 is found, which serves as a marker
showing where to insert the macro defs.

It is generated by update-exim4.conf from the local_domains setting in
update-exim4.conf.conf.

As far as I remember, MAIN_LOCAL_DOMAINS is not .ifdef wrapped in the
original file, so you either need to modify the template file itself
(which is OK if you want to) or to modify local_domains in ue4cc.
