It is:

Mar 31 04:03:19 sphinx exim[25887]: 2002-03-31 04:03:19 16rVcl-0006jX-00
<= <> H=localhost [127.0.0.1] P=smtp S=2860 id=E16rVcO-0006gY-00@???

the S=???? item. This should appear in the first log line for a given
message.

than what you require as it tries to account for mail sent by shell
users as well as by virtual domain.
