Apparently when a huge number of spam, say N, hits the server,
it might take m hours for a message that is non-spam to be delivered.

N messages are frozen rather crippling exim in doing a proper job.

Again, the above is working nicely wqith the exception of an e-mail getting
identified as a potentinal virus.

How do I tell exim anything ***authenticated*** on 465/587
should not be subjugated to anti-viral / anti-spam tests?

I doubt C comments exists in exim for its configure file.

Again here is what the above is saying:

The above is commented out as virtual e-mail addresses are not
being recognised properly. I am using a dbm file.
How Do I get exim to realise that we have local and virtual that needs
supporting ?

If the ns1 questions can also be answered, then we should be a go.

Once established, what is the best CA authority reasonably priced
for EXIM SSL certificates?
