There are a couple of ways. One is to use exim's built-in filtering
mechanism. An incomplete example can be found on exim.org. It is
incomplete becase not all encodings and variations on MIME headers can
be parsed with a single regular expression.
Another is to use the technique described in
http://dman13.dyndns.org/~dman/config_docs/exim-spamassassin/ and
simply replace the spamassassin-specific parts with whatever filter
mechanism you want.

Not too hard. I highly recommend upgrading to version 4. It is
greatly improved in a number of ways.

Not that I am aware of.
