It's probably the output of the systems crypt() function. BSD uses
that md5 variation by default. Linux has support for it in glibc too.
You can pass a DES hashed or bsd-md5-hashed string to crypt() [as
the salt part] from glibc and it will use the correct algorithm.

So if you see a string starting with $1$ chances are pretty big that
the systems crypt() function knows what to do with it just fine,
so you can use the standard strcmp(crypted, crypt(plaintext, crypted))
in C or exims crypteq() which just calls the system crypt() if I am
not mistaken.

int main()
{
    printf("%s\n", crypt("test123", "$1$eYrvxTAm$Wz4Wkxe5exy/5VhkuTnYH0"));
    return 0;
}
% ./a.out
$1$eYrvxTAm$Wz4Wkxe5exy/5VhkuTnYH0
