Try:
$ screen -S 22539..mirage -X exec /bin/ls -l
Notice that 'exec' wants the command it's to run and the command's
arguments to be separated by spaces, not combined into one string.
If that doesn't solve the problem, check that you don't have a
password set in your .screenrc; -X can't handle password-protected
sessions.
