Hi gang from sunny Novosibirsk!
  
  I'm a user of exim on Debian for donkey's years. And for most of
  them I have been using Marc Merlin's sa-exim with exim, to work with
  spamassassin. Sa-exim saves the rejected mail. It implements greylisting
  and tarpitting for me. sa-exim still in the Debian testing
  distribution. As I understand it, works by compling an object and
  reference this with exim's local_scan_path.

  But it stops working after Debian's exim4-daemon-heavy
  4.91-9. No mail is set to spamassassin. Marc suggested

> put debugging to max (look in the source code) and look at what's
> happening between exim and sa-exim

  I did that. I set

root@darni ~/opt/sa-exim-4.2.1 # diff sa-exim.c sa-exim.c.~1.71.~
91c91
< static int SAEximDebug=10;
---
> static int SAEximDebug=0;

  A make yields an object file

root@darni ~/opt/sa-exim-4.2.1 # ls -l sa-exim-4.2.1.so
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 54624 Mar 24 15:34 sa-exim-4.2.1.so

  I place that into my config

root@darni /etc/exim4 # grep local_scan  /var/lib/exim4/config.autogenerated
local_scan_path = /root/opt/sa-exim-4.2.1/sa-exim-4.2.1.so

root@darni /etc/exim4 # systemctl restart exim4

   I send an email from my server amorp (which still runs an old exim
   that enables sa-exim). There is not trace of anything that
   sa-exim does. Marc writes

> Could be the local scan interface changed somehow.

  I scanned the exim documentation changelogs from the Debian
  distribution and did not see anything that suggested that
  the local_scan_path has changed.

  Any wisdom from the kind folks of this list?
