> Only exim needs access to the spool files
This is the problem. unlike with imap there is no external agent that can
unlock a decryption key during their login.
Exim always needs access to the spool content. If exim can do it so can root.
so you may as well just stay with unix file access permissions protecting the
spool.
There is also an argument to be made that spool files are "in processing" and
not "at rest"
