Oops, sorry.

I changed to shell for Debian-exim to /bin/sh (from /bin/false). It  
ran fine with the correct headers (according to the SA local.cf).

2006-12-21 13:32:27 1GxBrH-00028z-3A SA: Debug6: Extracted header X- 
Spam-Checker-Version in buffer X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin  
3.0.3-spike1 (2005-04-27) on spike

So sa-exim runs spamc then parses the output? It seems to find the  
correct version (SpamAssassin 3.0.3-spike1). Can sa-exim be  
configured to pass on/inject the SA headers into the email message?

Many Thanks.
