Sa-exim has been flagged as problematic. I tried it briefly without problems
if I remember correctly but it was a pain to set up.
Using webmin-spamassassin, there is an option to set up the procmail. Nothing
simpler.
For virus scans, I did a google from procmail AND clamav. All the filters
found would work but they treat flagged mail differently. Choose your poison.
Anywhere here is my /etc/procmailrc
DROPPRIVS=yes
:0fw
| /usr/local/bin/clamassassin
:0fw
| /usr/bin/spamassassin
Procmail is enabled in exim4 by having the customary router/transport pair:
/etc/exim4/conf.d/router/700_exim4-config_procmail
/etc/exim4/conf.d/transport/30_exim4-config_procmail_pipe
I did not make these so either the webmin created them or they came with
exim4. If you use the one giant exim4 configuration file, then their contents
need be inserted into that.
