Subject: [Exim] optimize exim spamassassin router conditions
Hi,

i want to optimize the way my exim4,spamassasin and amavis setup works.
These are the things that go wrong for the moment

1. Spamassassin checks virus mail:
Below is an excerpt from the email headers from a virus mail.
My exim config is also down there.
Even while it's a virus, spamassassin still checks it.
How can i make sure this is not the case? I looked at the
documentation from exim but i cannot seem to find the correct
stuff i'm looking for.

2. With this setup (routers and transports) it also checks
outgoing mail. I do not want to do this. I don't know if this
is best or not. If it's best to allow scanning anyway, it would
be cool to avoid exim adding these headers to outgoing mail.
For incoming mail this is ok off course.

I tried exim4 a while back with exiscan and thus everything via
ACL. I didn't have problem 2 with that setup i think.

Anyway, solutions or links to appropriate docs are appreciated.

Regards,
Benedict
