I got it down, thanks.

One problem though - The workaround I used to pass the actual message
contents to the program being run was to pass the program the
message_id, and the program retrieved the body using exim itself with
the -Mvb option.

Metamail (which decodes the MIME) requires the headers of the message as
well, however the -Mvh option returns the headers in a corrupted format:

-host_address 196.31.121.5
-host_name samantha.vwv.com

-deliver_firsttime

Is there a way round it?

Should do, but we'll see - we have two redundant MTAs that work as mail
relays for all incoming and outgoing mail on boxes that are quite
lightly loaded.
