Can you tell us how to do this (with exim)?

Good article in the Economist about a month ago (not online as far as
I can see) about how the money laundering regulations caused a huge
burden for much of the economy, without actually having any noticable
effect on "terrorism".  They had a large burden on me - I couldn't
open a joint account with my wife because we simply don't have enough
paper documentation to prove that we live together.  I suspect that
data retention will be a similar burden.
