... and as stated in some other mails: if this script is run in any acl
before the DATA acl you're out of luck. As well as you are if you use
sa-exim, because this extension modifies the mail instead of returning
you the spam results (it just returns success or failure).


But you may test, if the headers added by sa-exim are available.
.... hm. Thinking about this, I believe, sa-exim is called *after* all
the acl checks, isn't it?

Using the 'builtin' spam acl shouldn't change too much in your setup,
except that you're responsible for adding/modifying the headers and that
you'll loose the 'short spam report' as it can be added by sa-exim
method of processing.
