Some more info. When i look at the frozen messages i see a lot of
Received headers. That was what exim was also complaining about.
It seems as if my mails got in a loop: the mail i'm checking right
now has about 10 X-Virus-Scanned lines.
So apparently they where was a loop between exim and amavis.
I have no idea why that happened. I have included my amavis router
and amavis transport: (the rest of the config is atteched to my
first mail)

router:
=======
amavis:
    driver = manualroute
    condition = "${if eq {$interface_port}{10025} {0}{1}}"
    transport = amavis
    route_list = "* localhost byname"
    self = send

transport
=========
amavis:
   driver = smtp
   port = 10024
   allow_localhost

Thanks for any ideas.
