Given the following setup:

                        MX 10      mailserver 1
 _______________     ____________/

| Internet      |---| spamscanner|         MX 20

 ---------------     ------------\
                   mailserver 2



The current setup is without "spamscanner" thus the MX record for the
two mailservers is 10.

I have to set up spamscanner in a very short time. It's sole function
will be to reject mail that spamassassin identified as spam and pass
the rest on to mailserver 1 and 2. I have decided to use Debian Sarge
because of the availability of exim4 with exiscan-acl.



I have a few questions and I am reading a lot to find out how to
handle it, but help from this list might speed up my progress.


1. In the exiscan documentation I read "you must set the spamd_address
option Section 1 of the exim configuration as follows (example):"

Where is Section 1 in the new fragmented form of configuration?

2. Will the following router do the job (adapted from the FAQ)?

   hubbed_hosts:
        driver = manualroute
      transport = remote_smtp
      route_list = mailserver1 : mailserver2


3. How will exim on spamscanner "know" do divide the mail aproximately
equally between the two mailservers?

Thanks for your help.

Regards
Johann
