Yes, all mail comes in through mj_email.

That's pretty much up to you (the Exim folks). I'm basically asking what I
need to add to make it work for Exim. We eventually need to know the
virtual domain being served (which generally coincides with the RHS of an
address), the list name and the function (-owner, -request, -somecommand).
We can generally figure out everything from the address, but if the MTA
doesn't allow us to say "nope, it's not ours" then the MTA has to figure
out if it's ours before sending it to us. That's the tough part.

For qmail, we take '-d dom.ain -Q' (the address is passed in the
environment). I'd be happy to use '-d dom.ain -E address' but I don't know
if/how the domain is available in the director/transport.

I didn't realize that directors could run as specific users.
