There are two solutions available. One is a dirty hack
(https://jimbobmcgee.wordpress.com/2020/07/29/de-tainting-exim-configuration-variables/)
which can be set up within exim. And the other one is a wrapper which uses
the environment variables set by exim when run. The env variables include
the receipient's email address. This way the wrapper is called without any
tainted variables, exim is happy, and the wrapper still gets the
receipient's email address.
