I had the same concern; I'd like to use local_scan() to run messages
through SpamAssassin and reject spam. SA adds some headers to all
messages it processes, and it would be nice to see those headers on
false negatives: "Why did this spam leak through? Oh, here's what SA
found...".
What would happen if local_scan() rewrote the message header file,
anyways? Complete pandemonium, or just subtle problems in some
as-yet-unrealized future version of Exim?
