As a matter of course I, but maybe now need to review this policy,
strip out X-Spam* SpamAssassin headers that have been leaked to the
internet by misconfigured hosts and just in case I leak them as
well.
I can't specify in a router or transport where headers should be
added and I certainly can't add my SA headers at ACL time because
they may then leak out onto the internet. If I do add them and
strip them at SMTP transport time I might strip out headers that
came in and are a part of the signature.
My server will always be able to verify the signature at incoming
SMTP time, but for instance in a local delivery, any old SA headers
will be removed and new ones may be inserted. The client will then be
unable to verify the signature when they pop or imap their mail.

How do you now they're part of the signature? There's no context
in exim's header manipulation.
