amavis-ng is an entirely new program, a modular design. Some code has
been taken from amavis, but the logic is different. The system filter
approach uses embedded perl, and the e-mail is only passed through
exim once. If the mail is clean, you can't see that the mail was
scanned as opposed to the additional set of Received:-Headers that are
added with the old approach.
