Sa-Exim runs spamassassin on exim's local scan and lets you set a
threshold score to 'tarpit' (they call it teergrube)

you can get it at http://sa-exim.sf.net

also
there's a good how-to for compiling exim with sa-exim and exiscan acl (
available at http://duncanthrax.net/exiscan-acl ) which you can pick up
at http://www.timj.co.uk/linux/exim.php

i followed the 'mini-how-to' above a while back, and it worked great.

the following is my abridged version of it:

1) Make an install directory
2) DL Source Files to a SRC directory (backup) and copy them to the
working dir, unzip, and untar
3) go into the exim dir, and apply the exiscan acl patch
4) go into the sa-exim dir, overwrite the exim/src dir's local_scan.c
with sa_exim.c - then "make sa-exim.h" and copy it to the same directory
5) copy exim/src/EDITME to exim/Local/Makefile -- then edit that file
6) "make", test it, then su and "make install"
7) edit the /usr/exim/configure and /usr/exim/sa-exim.conf files

note: in local_scan.c, i moved sa-exim.conf to /usr/exim/sa-exim.conf
-- to match exim's /usr/exim/configure
