USER@TEACHER /cygdrive/c/cygwinsetup/ftp%3a%2f%2fftp.nsysu.edu.tw%2fUnix%2fGNU%2fcygwin/release/exim
$ tar tjf exim-4.10-2.tar.bz2 
usr/bin/
usr/bin/exim-4.10-2.exe
[etc]

So, you are right. It has teh correct file name.

I wonder if it is due to my LOGNAME being all capitals?  However,
this may not be the reason, because I didn't have this problem
when I first installed exim, when the $LOGNAME == USER
too.
