Okay, feel free to close the bug then. Maybe Exim isn't the right tool
for the job. It would help if the daemons would mail me directly; I
hear that systemd is planning to take over cron/at so it's possible
there would be some improvements here.

I was wondering why I even had Exim installed, but it seems it's
required by reportbug.
