I'd never heard of geximon and it isn't part of the main exim release.

https://packages.debian.org/stretch/geximon describes it as:
   an X monitor for the exim mail transport agent. It has all features of
   the original (tracking the log, managing the mail queue, plotting, etc.)
   and more. It also integrates with exiwhat (allowing you to manage active exim
   instances), exigrep, and eximstats. The interface is intuitive, compact,
   and easy to use.
and suggests that geximon has a home page at
     http://projects.planetwatson.co.uk/wiki/geximon
- which is down at the moment.
