A similar thing came up on this list a few weeks ago.
I recommended a .forward file in the Exim user's home
directory (/var/lib/exim4 on Debian/Ubuntu,
/var/lib/exim on Fedora/Red Hat/ CentOS I believe)

Alex Willmer recommended sieve for server side mail

he recommends "a simple 'if' on the subject line in
the append file transport".
