I was going to suggest something this morning, but somebody forced me to
read useless rfcs instead, so I forgot about it.

Don't know anything about the Cyrus bit (I use wu-imapd, etc.), but your
method is what I used till I started using SA-Exim.

- The router and transport look o.k., only I had:

senders = !$local_part
check_local_user

too, to try and stop scanning on the way out (never worked.)

You don't really want the following, do you? Break lines at spaces:

{$received_protocol}{spam\
-scanned}}} {1}{0}}

- Also, put it /before/ the dnslookup router.

Best,

Tony
