Yep -- I'm using Debian stable, so running Exim 3.12 and reading the
3.10 manual. Will probably upgrade to 3.22 (it's in Debian testing) one
of these days, but not just yet. It sounds like I now have one more
reason to upgrade -- thanks.

For the record, I got things working by changing to use "mail" instead
of "fail". This has all sorts of benefits apart from actually working
in concert with "save" and "logwrite" -- I can set the subject, put the
custom response text in a separate file, etc. Here's what my filter
snippet looks like now:

if $message_body contains "..." or
   $message_body contains "..." or
   ...
then 
  save /var/log/exim/rejected-mail 
  logwrite "$tod_log $message_id rejected (SirCam signature)" 
  logwrite "$tod_log subject: $header_subject" 
  logwrite "$tod_log recipients: $recipients" 
  mail subject "Mail returned: virus detected"  
       file /etc/exim/sircam-reject.txt  
       return message 
  seen finish 
endif 


Thanks again --

        Greg
