Ah ok, I understand better now. Nice to hear the think is actually
working with greylisting (as I never tried it myself) :D

That was actually part of the problems I had. Some parts where
commented but not others so that in the end some counters weren't
updated and thus the return value wasn't right.

That sounds very nice. Do you set the "dcc_direct_header_add = yes"
right into the ACL then?
BTW, I'm now wondering if it would be interesting to split the results
and to return separate values for Body, Fuz1 & Fuz2 to exim. What do
you think?

I've now tested it some more and also deployed it on some more heavily
used servers and no problems so far.

That would be great. Let me know if I can help in some way. :)
