Using Unix sockets to connect to SpamAssassin gives me the required
defer if SpamAssassin stops running. Exim debug output shown below
processing "warn"
check spam = exim:true
trying server 127.0.0.1, port 783
LOG: MAIN PANIC
spam acl condition: warning - spamd connection to 127.0.0.1, port
783 failed: Connection refused
LOG: MAIN PANIC
spam acl condition: all spamd servers failed
warn: condition test deferred
As for the Virus check, that runs before SpamAssassin in a deny, so I
can't comment on that.
