But in anyway we have to hand it over to the spamd or something else.
And this peace of spam detection software have to run.
Thats the time consuming task, I would say.
Also we have to run a couple of exim routers.
One more or less; I don't would susspect that it is so much faster.

Do you mean, that we could enable our users to determine whether or not
exim should reject spam messages for them during the smtp time?
That's would be brilliant!
But we need it categorical on a per user basis, cause of the german laws

Should that be really possible?
