Hello,
here comes my first e-mail to this group.
I am quite unexperienced in configuring mailservers, so I would
appreciate some help :)
I followed the instructions here:
http://dman13.dyndns.org/~dman/
config_docs/exim-spamassassin/node12.html
to use SA together with exim.
When I triy to restart exim I get the following message:
[hanno: /etc/mail]>sudo /usr/local/etc/rc.d/exim.sh
restart
HannosServer
exim not running? (check /var/run/exim.pid).
Starting exim.
2007-02-25 11:56:11 Exim configuration error in line 616 of /usr/
local/etc/exim/configure:
router spamcheck: cannot find router driver "pipe"
Here is a excerpt of my config file:

# ROUTERS CONFIGURATION #

#smart_route:
# driver = manualroute
# domains = !+local_domains
# transport = remote_smtp
# route_list = * router.studio
# This router routes to remote hosts over SMTP by explicit IP address,
# when an email address is given in "domain literal" form, for example,
# <user@???>. The RFCs require this facility. However, it is
# little-known these days, and has been exploited by evil people seeking
# to abuse SMTP relays. Consequently it is commented out in the default
# configuration. If you uncomment this router, you also need to
uncomment
# allow_domain_literals above, so that Exim can recognize the syntax of
# domain literal addresses.
# domain_literal:
# driver = ipliteral
# domains = ! +local_domains
# transport = remote_smtp
# This router routes addresses that are not in local domains by doing
a DNS
# lookup on the domain name. The exclamation mark that appears in
"domains = !
# +local_domains" is a negating operator, that is, it can be read as
"not". The
# recipient's domain must not be one of those defined by "domainlist
# local_domains" above for this router to be used.
#
# If the router is used, any domain that resolves to 0.0.0.0 or to a
loopback
# interface address (127.0.0.0/8) is treated as if it had no DNS
entry. Note
# that 0.0.0.0 is the same as 0.0.0.0/32, which is commonly treated
as the
# local host inside the network stack. It is not 0.0.0.0/0, the
default route.
# If the DNS lookup fails, no further routers are tried because of
the no_more
# setting, and consequently the address is unrouteable.
dnslookup:
driver = dnslookup
domains = ! +local_domains
transport = remote_smtp
ignore_target_hosts = 0.0.0.0 : 127.0.0.0/8 : 10.0.0.0/24
no_more
# The remaining routers handle addresses in the local domain(s), that
is those
# domains that are defined by "domainlist local_domains" above.
# This router handles aliasing using a linearly searched alias file
with the
# name /etc/aliases. When this configuration is installed automatically,
# the name gets inserted into this file from whatever is set in Exim's
# build-time configuration. The default path is the traditional /etc/
aliases.
# If you install this configuration by hand, you need to specify the
correct
# path in the "data" setting below.
#
##### NB You must ensure that the alias file exists. It used to be
the case
##### NB that every Unix had that file, because it was the Sendmail
default.
##### NB These days, there are systems that don't have it. Your aliases
##### NB file should at least contain an alias for "postmaster".
#
# If any of your aliases expand to pipes or files, you will need to set
# up a user and a group for these deliveries to run under. You can do
# this by uncommenting the "user" option below (changing the user name
# as appropriate) and adding a "group" option if necessary.
Alternatively, you
# can specify "user" on the transports that are used. Note that the
transports
# listed below are the same as are used for .forward files; you might
want
# to set up different ones for pipe and file deliveries from aliases.

# This router handles forwarding using traditional .forward files in
users'
# home directories. If you want it also to allow mail filtering when
a forward
# file starts with the string "# Exim filter" or "# Sieve filter",
uncomment
# the "allow_filter" option.
# If you want this router to treat local parts with suffixes
introduced by "-"
# or "+" characters as if the suffixes did not exist, uncomment the
two local_
# part_suffix options. Then, for example, xxxx-foo@??? will
be treated
# in the same way as xxxx@??? by this router. You probably
want to make
# the same change to the localuser router.
# The no_verify setting means that this router is skipped when Exim is
# verifying addresses. Similarly, no_expn means that this router is
skipped if
# Exim is processing an EXPN command.
# The check_ancestor option means that if the forward file generates an
# address that is an ancestor of the current one, the current one gets
# passed on instead. This covers the case where A is aliased to B and B
# has a .forward file pointing to A.
# The three transports specified at the end are those that are used when
# forwarding generates a direct delivery to a file, or to a pipe, or
sets
# up an auto-reply, respectively.

What am I doing wrong ?
My second question is :
Do I have to create the user mail, and what privileges should he have ?
Thanks for your help
