Jumping in perhaps a bit late... I'm surprised nobody's mentioned the option of using Exim's built-in filtering capabilities. There's some option to enable in the exim conf that allows per-user .forward files with (relatively) procmail-like filtering capabilities, which is what I use here and am quite happy with. As for spam filtering, it's an awfully big question. Lots of people have lots of differing opinions on the best way to go about it. One way that I've found worked well for me was "method 1" from dman's very helpful howto here: http://dman13.dyndns.org/~dman/config_docs/exim-spamassassin/ It's worth noting that with trivial modification, this setup can be persuaded to use per-user Bayes settings. (I don't remember the exact syntax, but there's a command-line option for spamc that basically amounts to "as user <foo>".
