OK. I can understand that once the mail is received somewhere,
you can't treat it the same as if you were receiving it
directly from the sender.. I'm doing about 1/2 and 1/2 right now..
My own domain/server is new, so I'm still getting stuff at old addresses..
and most of the spam is going to the old addys..

But I still don't understand what is causing perl to do so much whining..
I'm no guru, but I do use perl quite a bit, and I'm having a helluva time
understanding what's going on here..

Too bad.. cuz apart from these perl complaints, it *feels* like sa-exim
is doing what I want -- the spam is gone and the good mail is getting in!

But, ok, I'll remove sa-exim from my config, and see if I can just
get SA working alone.. Thanks for the help.


cheers,

John
