[SC.LUG] Spamassassin

Any reason why your using sa-exim rather than the included eximscan way 
of using spamassasin.  We use eximscan and use an acl to process the 
mail through spamassasin and antivirus

The second batch of results shows a successful scan by spamassassin.

Any question give us a shout.
