What more do you want than is already mentioned in the FAQ?
Q5002: How can I arrange to allow a limited set of users to perform a limited
set of Exim administration functions? I don't want to put them all in
the exim group.
A5002: See http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~ian/userv/. Using userv you can
arrange (for example) for certain users to be able to invoke mailq or
runq or other preset commands as exim (or any other user, as configured)
with only userv configuration. If you want to check the particular Exim
options available you can easily do it with shell or Perl scripts and
userv configuration, and provided you know how to do argument
`unparsing' properly in shell or Perl it will be secure.
