Well, I don't know what to think of it.

I don't think so. I just tested by killing spamd and sending a message.
The log entry looks like:

So, that makes it run fine. It just doesn't get checked for spam content.
I don't know what the PANIC error is about. What broke the pipe? I
don't think the messages that were temporarily rejected reached as far
as the sa-exim code. There were no PANIC's. I don't know why the
first one that made it past RCPT hit a PANIC, but maybe it's a clue of
some sort.
So, the sa-exim code is (with >> at line 834:
/* Ok, we're ready for spewing the mail at spamc */
/* First we need to get the header lines from exim, and then we can read
the body from fd */
hl=header_list;
while (hl != NULL)
{
/* type '*' means the header is internal, don't print it */
if (hl->type == '*')
{
hl=hl->next;
continue;
}
>> ret=write(writefd[1],hl->text,strlen(hl->text));
CHECKERR(ret,"header line write",__LINE__);
hl=hl->next;
}
ret=write(writefd[1],"\n",1);
CHECKERR(ret,"header separation write",__LINE__);
So. I still don't know.
Thank you again.
