i think we're turning now back to your first post:

you then need to do that tinkering, whatever that whould be. what Phil
told you is just handles off the messages to anything (presumably a
tinkered-with smtp server?) running at localhost:1025 (which i thought
was all your exim could be involved in; seems i'm wrong. but, you need
to expose some details about this 'tinkering' then, if you want to do
that with exim too :)
