Aihe: [Exim] Spamassassin Survey
Thanks to all those who answered my request for information the other week.
For those who are interested, here are the results:

Replies received: 12. Figures below include UCE:

MTAs
Exim        10
Sendmail    2
Postfix    1


Anti-spam measures
Spamassassin    3
RBL/RBL+        8    * We also use RBL at UCE, with SA handling
the stuff that slips through
none            2
other            1    * Exim system filter used


Policies
bounce        8    * All the sites using RBL, plus one that uses SA &
other filtering methods
flag            3
do nothing        1    * looking into anti-spam measures
other            1


Not very conclusive, I know, but at least it shows the popularity of Exim!
:) We have RBL set to reject but have found that a number of spam messages
still get through. We first tried using filters but the Exim system filter
file became a bit unwieldy, hence investigating SA.

Feel free to contact me off-list if anything is unclear.
