Subject: AW: [Exim] All-Spam filter
just use amavisd-new
amavis has configuration possibilities like enlistment of virus OR/AND
spamlovers.
these are emailadresses or domains who WANT to receive spam AND/OR viruses
no matter if amavis detects them or not.

in case you dont know amavis. amavis is a wrapper for MTA (sendmail postfix
exim qmail ...) which is usable via milters or via double installations of
MTA.
exim receives mail and sends it to amavis then
amavis examines the received mail (e.g. via spamassassin and clamav but
other tools are available too) and depending on the result it does bounce
reject delete OR post it back to exim
exim then is responsible for the delivery again.

works pretty smooth around here
