OK, I did the changes. I only have a virtual server, so a lot of RAM is
not an option ;-)

I did not really understand your last paragraph (I am still a beginner to
this all ;-))
These are my routers:

So I should take instead of 850 a lower number for the spamcheck router?
Which one would you take? FYI: I do not use procmail or maildrop, I use
the .forward file as Exim filter file.

Thanks,
