Smartuser is just the driver, your "problem" is the condition, that
catches all, except mails that are inserted with spam-scanned as protocol.

verify = false just means "skip this director while verifying", so it's
ok to set it vor your spamcheck-director, this WILL prevent you from
accepting every recipient. Please read the documentation about
address-verification.

Exim will not run the transports while verification, it just checks "ok,
is it possible for me to deliver this recipient, after i accepted it".
