Don't use a warship to catch a shrimp. It's generally overkill. Instead,
use something like
$ exim -pba | fgrep frozen | awk '{print $3}' | xargs exim -v -M
Much simpler and it works. If you do not understand any of those
commands, RTFM.
In general it is not advisable to run this from cron.
ignore_errmsg_errors_after will provide you with a much better way of
doing this over time. However, you generally want to have a look at
frozen messages as some may contains clue as to errors on your
system/config/whatever.
