No.  I'm not an exim expert but...

This probably should be:

        warn add_header = X-Virus-Scanner: ClamAV on $primary_hostname

but I don't think message + warn will/should fire together.

I don't use the above two, instead only:

        deny    malware   = *

I get lines like this:

2007-01-14 14:48:51 JBVLTF-000260-61 H=black [192.168.10.2] F=<[EMAIL 
PROTECTED]>
rejected after DATA: This message contains a virus
(Email.Spam.Gen041.Sanesecurity.06121902).

The only real difference is that "*/defer_ok", but I don't know what it does or
if that is the problem.  Could be something else, like restarting the server
after changing the configuration, or that I'm using Exim 4.63 .
