The documentation is good (not wrong or misleading).
But i was feeling that it was not easy to find what i am searching.
This is normal for such a complex software.
I can only add my example which will be not the best way but easy and working.
At this time it fullfills a complete spam solution for me.

I am ashamed that i realized this good book not before.
It is easy to find on the exim homepage!
Maybe because i did not expect such a book for free.
I never find a remark somewhere that this book exists.
Unbelievable to recognize it now after all the time.

I would have more fun in the history exploring Exim with this book.
Configuring a mail system is really a challenge and not only some work.
