That's not how it's usually set up ... where on earth did you pick up
that config?

http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch41.html#SECID206
has all the correct details and you might be well of reading it to
understand a little bit more of what is going on.

To fix the problem, remove the entire "bounce_spam" router.

Next, find a nice place in your DATA ACL (acl_smtp_data = XXXXXXXX near
the top of your config file - if it doesn't exist... have a look at the
default config that comes with Exim), and put something like the
following in it .. "spamc" is whatever SA user you run under, or
whatever you set it to.

# Add X-Spam-Score header to every email regardless of score
  warn    message       = X-Spam-Score: $spam_score ($spam_bar)
          condition     = ${if <{$message_size}{80k}{1}{0}}
          spam          = spamc:true


# Add spam report to headers, but only if > 5.0
  warn    message       = X-Spam-Report: $spam_report
          condition     = ${if <{$message_size}{80k}{1}{0}}
          spam          = spamc:true
          condition     = ${if >{$spam_score_int}{50}{1}{0}}


# Tag the subject if SA thinks it's spam from its settings
  warn    message       = X-New-Subject: **SPAM** $spam_score $h_subject:
          condition     = ${if <{$message_size}{80k}{1}{0}}
          spam          = spamc


# Reject the mail if it's above 10.0
  deny    message       = Spam score too high
          log_message   = Spam score too high ($spam_score)
          condition     = ${if <{$message_size}{80k}{1}{0}}
          spam          = spamc:true/defer_ok
          condition     = ${if >{$spam_score_int}{100}{1}{0}}


The $spam_score_int variable is set when the spam = thingy is used.
This does all the spam reject type stuff at RCPT time and wont stuff up
your address verification.

I pulled this straight from my config, but now that I look at it, I may
have to review that part of it.
