use exim -bp instead of mailq.
The command above gets a complete list of the queue, parse the lines
looking for the word frozen thakes the 3rd argumente and then pipes that
for delivery on exim
I had a small perl script that does the same to keep trying to force
deliveries, kinda like this way more than mine :)

And with this particular deal there's no man pages that I can find and exim.org seems a bit disorganized and is unsearchable as far as I can tell. Hence my annoying questions here :)
a man page would to be too extensive, I think that's why there's none. I
don't think the exim.org is unsearcheable, there's a documentation
section and there u find ALL the exim specification and filters
documatition. In the docs, though, you need to read them carefully,
there are some small details that sometimes can get u problems.
