Make sure you have perl installed and your spamassassin perl modules are
installed.
use. info for this can be found @ http://www.spamassassin.org/dist/INSTALL

ps if you use cpan add a :
o conf urllist http://www.cpan.org/
for good measure ( my mirror I was connected to did not have the
spamassassin modules )
-But it sounds like you got this far.


then download from http://marc.merlins.org/linux/exim/sa.html the sa-exim
source. Copy the sa-exim.c file over the source of the src/local_scan.c
(of exim 4.1x source).

Compile, install. Configure your spamassassin settings and if your
exim.conf file is ok then any email will be scanned as they arrive, and
rejected(if spam hits >= spam score) real time.

You should not need to really set any thing in exim.conf for spam assassin
when you do it the sa-exim way.

This is how I did it.

Also Exim if patched can run loadable modules. if your exim is patched for
this you would not need to recompile. I dont know if there are rpms for
this? again refer to Marc Merlins website about this.

Cheers,
Ariel
