to exim. further clues appreciated.

% cat /bin/rcsmtp
#! /bin/sh
# Receive compressed batches of SMTP commands and send them to exim.
# Filename /bin/rcsmtp - the batched/compressed mail packet generated by
# the remote cbsmtp will be 'mailed' via uux to this-system!rcsmtp.
# Therefore 'rcsmtp' must somehow be set up in the config file and be
# found on uux's path.
# This just uncompresses and feeds it into 'rmail' which is just exim in
# disguise ...
