Exim with a "-t" option will swallow that file on stdin, taking the
"from-space" line
and applying the "uucp_from_pattern" to it to obtain an envelope sender,
and getting envelope recipients from the To: Cc: and Bcc: headers
(or Resent- variants, but that gets tricky...). The default for that option
is almost certainly sufficient.

Bear in mind that the original sender had separate control over the actual
envelope recipient and those headers.

Those three blank lines will end up as part of the body.
