The date (and time) in the format used in exim's logs is in a $tod_log
variable - eg "2003-06-17 09:19:47". I use the first 10 characters of
this to get the date in some situations for a logfile in a system filter:
/var/log/exim/blah_log.${length_10:$tod_log} - ie. 2003-06-17
You could then (if you need to stick to YYYYMM format) use other string
operators to get rid of the "-" - possibly sg, substr or extract.
Maybe something like this would do it (untried!)
${extract{1}{-}{${length_7:$tod_log}}}${extract{2}{-}{${length_7:$tod_log}}}
although it's probably neater with sg, but I'm not used to using that.
