I'm doing this myself, in fact I just responded to some about this about
1/2 an hour ago. The short is that it's pretty easy to do, and in my
situation I simply configured the following packages exim, spamassassin,
and sa-exim. I then setup exim with no local domains, and to act as a
relay for my specific domain. I also setup exim to act as a smart host
for all outbound messages coming from the Exchange server.

All things considered it's probably not utilizing the exim to its
fullest extent, but it certainly is better than letting Exchange onto
the open Internet. :-)

Subject: [Exim] Exim and MS Exchange

Does anyone have any information on the list ton using Exim with
Exchange, such that Exim just runs a number of server rules and such on
the emails (ie: anti spam stuff) and Exchange as the backend where mail
gets stored, users check mail, etc .

What I was thinking is just that exim accepts all mail (verify correct
user domain so not to appear like a relay), does all its rules and then
for delivery sends off to the Exchange Server for actual delivery to
user.


Thanks,
