Subject: [Exim] My size maximum seems to not be working
We're using Exim 4.2 with Exiscan and accessing spamd from another server on
our network.

I thought we had a limit set in our ocnfiguration to tell exim to not scan
files greater than 100k. below is the entry.

##don;t scan emails greater than 100k
warn    message        = X-Spam-Score: $spam_score ($spam_bar)
          condition      = ${if <{$message_size}{100k}{1}{0}}
          spam           = nobody:true
###end of file size check


But, after looking at my log for spamassassin, I see that some files being
scanned are greater than 100K (the 4th entry of my log)

Is my configuration entry correct?
