Alle,
This may end up not being an Exim problem (my daftness) but I have a situation
that has left me clueless.
I am hoping that someone is running the combination that I am trying to put in
place or Exim+DrWeb+SA (or maybe some other virus scanner than DrWeb).
I run Exim-3.36 with DRWEB Scanner (run via the System Filter) and now I was
trying to incorporate Spamassassin using the instructions Derrick 'dman' gave
at http://dman.ddts.net/~dman/.
I run DRWEB as follows from the filter:
# DR Web Antivirus will scan all messages
if $received_protocol is "drweb-scanned"
then
# looks like a already scanned message
finish
endif
[Snip some filter rules here..]
# Dr.Web Filter
pipe "/usr/local/drweb/drweb-exim -f $sender_address -- $recipients"
finish
However when I send mail to a local address on the test machine, the
mail seems to get stuck in the queue. I therefore do exim -qff and
get a delivery, which contains this error:
<cut>
Subject: Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender
This message was created automatically by mail delivery software (Exim).
A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:
pipe to |/usr/local/drweb/drweb-exim -f $sender_address -- $recipients
generated by message filter
Too many "Received" headers - suspected mail loop
</cut>
and yes, I see there was a loop, but I am unable to figure out where/how it originates
My (bulky) configure file is available at https://courier.wananchi.com/~wash/Exim/

Thanks in advance for all advise.
