The problem Sal is having is similar to the problem I'm having. I want to get Exim configured as a spam filter, taking advantage of its ability to do SpamAssassin at SMTP time and if possible I want it to greylist if SA score is > than 4.
After I get Exim setup as a pretty good mail filter, then I'll add MailScanner to make it a great filter. Problem I'm having & Sal is probably having same issue is all the documentation I have found is fragmented or refers to SA-Exim. I may be wrong, but it seems my version of Exim (4.63) has sa-exim built in, so I'd like to use the "original equipment" version of sa-exim. The documentation I've read isn't real good in this department. Now, to answer Sal's question, page 359-362 of Hazel's book documents the answer to both our questions regarding SA, the book doesn't cover Greylisting, I do have the Meers book on order, I'm hoping it will cover Greylisting. If I ever get the tiime, I'm hopng to read both books cover-to-cover, I suspect I'll have a better understanding when done.
