There is a new Exim snapshot in
ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/email/exim/Testing/exim-snapshot.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/email/exim/Testing/exim-snapshot.tar.gz.sig
It has a new option called mua_wrapper that is supposed to do this job.
The documentation is in doc/NewStuff. Please test and report any
problems.
Why, you might ask, have I done this rather specialist thing so quickly?
Answer: some of my own colleagues here in Cambridge also asked for this
facility. Local requirements do tend to get priority... :-)
