See section 5 of the spec:
http://www.exim.org/exim-html-4.62/doc/html/spec_html/ch05.html#id2525976

---snip---
-q[q][i]ff...

     If ff is present, a delivery attempt is forced for every message, 
whether frozen or not.
---snip---


from a shell/terminal just type:
exim -qff <enter> or
exim4 -qff <enter> if your using debian or a debian-like distro


Thanks
