Surely the best[1] way would be to have the perl script give it back to
Exim, with something like this to prevent loops:
if $sender_address is "exim-users-request@???" and
$h_subject contains "[EXIM]" then
pipe to your script
endif
Now why didn't I think of using Perl, I may try this myself.
[1] OK, `easiest', not `best', but I'm lazy
