I'm pretty sure it does. Yeah, was using that before jumping into
2.x not too long ago. Though, I think I was running 1.6.24, or
maybe even the non released beta 1.6.25. See if deliver supports
the '-l' option. If so, it should be able to talk LMTP.

Before going to 2.x, I had an entry like this in inetd.conf:

lmtp stream tcp nowait cyrus /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/local/cyrus/bin/deliver -e -l

The tcpd binary is from the tcp_wrappers package. Then in your
/etc/hosts.allow make sure your lmtp server above can only be
accessed by dev.nstc.com. Then configure your exim to deliver via
LMTP over a TCP socket.
