Hi Jorge,

I think, you miss the link between spamassassin and exim.

You need two think. One is the ACL using `spam = nobody:true` which uses
user nobody in this case to check for spam.

The second, and in your case the most important, is the (default) spamd
at localhost port 783. You must ensure that spamd IS running. In case of
spamassassin, it is a perl script. Be sure to have, in case of a
debianoid system, have package spamassassin installed and the daemon
running.

When you change some rules, you only have to restart the spamd. NOT
Exim.

Regards
   Klaus
