I have configured Exim-4.33 and Dspam-3.0 to use BSMTP, contrary to
what is recommended in the several HOWTO's available on this topic.
My first justification was to configure it as close to the way I have
configured Spamassassin and Spambayes in the past; my second reason
was to not recreate the wheel. Perhaps I am missing the point--why
is it necessary for Dspam to call the MTA when streams could be used?
Is this just for flexibility, not so much a requirement?
The following configuration works almost perfectly. The "almost"
part of it is that certain messages are not delivered, while the majority
of spam and innocent mail is processed just fine.
I'm curious how I can enable further debugging to show why this
message returns an error, but most others work fine. Can anyone offer
any suggestions?
Here is the error I am receiving:
LOG: MAIN
<hank@???>: dspam transport output: An error was
