I would do the following:

First, I would not use group wheel. It is too privileged. You could use
'mailman', or 'daemon' or some other non-priveleged group that seems
appropriate.

Assuming you choose mailman, rerun configure with
--with-mail-gid=mailman and make install.

Then in your Exim config in the definition of the mailman_transport
transport, put

  user              = mailman
  group             = mailman

or if you already have something like

  user              = MM_UID
  group             = MM_GID

find the definitions of these and make them

MM_UID=mailman
MM_GID=mailman
