I reported this problem a week ago but have had no response. It's
getting serious now as it's now happening at a customer's site.

We're running exim 4.22 with exiscan and spamassassin 2.63.

Everything was working pretty well for a while and then one day most of
the e-mail was being placed into the spam folder by .forward even though
the X-Spam-Status was set to No.

I ran a lot of tests, even ran debug but could see no reason for this. I
switched back to SA 2.43 and everything worked fine again.

I ran exim under debug for both 2.43 and 2.63 and compared the output.
They were pretty much identical but under 2.63 exim delivered the e-mail
into the spam folder (as confirmed by mainlog) but under 2.43 exim
delivered it to the user mailbox. I gave up and switched myself back to
2.43.

This morning I got a call from a customer complaining that they weren't
getting e-mail. Guess what? The e-mail was all going into the spam
folders. But not all the e-mail. I checked and saw that some e-mail was
dribbling through, but only a couple. No changes had been made to
their configuration since April 19th.

If I remove the .forward file all the e-mail goes through (even the spam
flagged, of course).

Is there a bug in exim that could be causing this?

Any help would be appreciated.
