IIUYC, you are saying that the Exim boxes are connecting to the spamd
box via tcp socket and that spamd is running on a different host than
the boxes running Exim, yes?
May we see the spamd ACLs that you use, and the global config param
for spamd? Better show us the whole of your acl_smtp_data ACL.
spamd_address = ???
That way we can make an informed opinion.
How good is the network connection between the Exim boxes and the spamd
box?
cheers
