If you are asking for my stance, it is unknown. As I said, the content
scanning isn't my area of expertise. I suppose I would expect serious
content-scanning to be carried out by programs other than Exim, as is
currently the case. I originally provided the local_scan() interface for 
this purpose and Tom added the ACL interfaces to virus scanners and 
SpamAssassin. I wouldn't object to extending these interfaces to other 
kinds of content-scanner.
