I looked at the setting again and said to myself that it's actually
more cute to let the users who love spam get them, since they are few.
So I modified the rules:


deny     message      = yak! yak!
         dnslists     = those_rbls_list
         condition    = ${lookup{$local_part}lsearch{/usr/local/etc/exim/spamcheck_exempted}{no}{yes}}


Hmm, I think Dr. Hazel wrote the 'coolest' MTA this century. Thanks Doc.
