accept_8bitmime
Type: boolean
Default: false
This option causes Exim to send 8BITMIME in its response to an SMTP EHLO
command, and to accept the BODY= parameter on MAIL FROM commands. However,
though Exim is 8-bit clean, it is not a protocol converter, and it takes
no steps to do anything special with messages received by this route.
Consequently, this option is turned off by default.
That's in the specs for 2.12. But I'm sure its in there for older
versions as well

Relativism is the triumph of authority over truth, convention over justice.
