Or you could "capture" you files in the MIME ACL while they are unpacked
for you and identified in:
/var/spool/exim/scan/...
and just trap the sender address and content type and call a bit of PERL
to do the dirty work, or if your requirement is particularly simple and
you know the sender you can just use:
decode = <filename/path>
