Yes, I was thinking of the initial reception of the mail, when you
want to store it away in a different, dynamically named, queue
directory. I thought perhaps -bs and -D could help with that.

Well, but if they're on a real Exim queue, just called /var/spool/-
exim/passive-192.168.42.5/input (or somesuch), couldn't you just
deliver them from there? And if your exim.conf had
spool_directory = MYQUEUE
shouldn't -MC -DMYQUEUE=... be all you needed to do so?

If we can thrash out an approach you're comfortable with, I'm ready to
take a shot at this too. The second half of my vacation is coming up,
though, so I'll have to let the matter rest for a few weeks myself.
