In a large saucepan, whisk together the eggs, sugar and salt. Stir in 2 cups of the milk, and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thinly coats the back of a metal spoon. An instant-read thermometer should read 160?F. Remove from heat, and stir in the remaining 2 cups milk, vanilla extract and rum. Cover and chill thoroughly, at least 4 hours or overnight.
