That's one way of doing it.
However, to my knowledge, exim has no concept of a "submit" queue, things are
either on the queue or they aren't (I'mm cc'ing sheldonh as I'm pretty sure he
will know).
Therefore, use this little knob :
{setantae@rhadamanth}-{~} $ grep mail /etc/periodic.conf
daily_status_include_submit_mailq="NO" #
