This should be in a FAQ somewhere.
You *really* ought to use exception when dealing with external programs
that change (and seem to break) as often as spamasssin. Actually, it's
not spamassassin's fault, it's Gentoo's, but that's not germane.
Consider instead:
exception {
xfilter "/usr/local/bin/spamassassin -x"
}
Some may argue in favor of a spamc/spamd approach, but spamc sends the
entire message over a pipe to spamd, which then does an expensive set of
tests of the message, and returns the result back over the pipe. Some
well respected perl smarties tell me they wouldn't touch spamc/spamd for
money.

Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner.
Liberty is two wolves attempting to have a sheep for dinner and
finding a well-informed, well-armed sheep.
