Wouldn't it be preferable to only HUP the main exim process rather than
hupping all the child processes - quite a few of which will be mail
delivery? Like with sendmail, all you need to do is

# kill -HUP `head -n1 /var/run/sendmail.pid`

As for Hanasaki's original q, an added thing would be to set
sender_verify - as an id of spam@spam most likely won't resolve :)
