Move them into /var/spool/exim/input, make sure they have exactly the 
same ownership, group and permissions as all the other files in there, 
and Exim should pick them up and deliver them.
To hurry the process along, something like
/usr/sbin/exim -C /etc/exit/exit_send.conf -Mc message-id-here
should kick it into making a delivery attempt.
