    Given the following setup:

                            MX 10 mailserver 1
     _______________ ____________/
    | Internet |---| spamscanner| MX 20
     --------------- ------------\
                                       mailserver 2

    Malservers 1 and 2 are our current MX 10 domain.

    I have to set up spamscanner in a very short time. It's sole function
    will be to reject mail that spamassassin identified as spam and pass
    the rest on to mailserver 1 and 2. I have decided to use sarge
    because of the availability of exim4 and exiscan-acl.

    I have a few questions and I am reading a lot to find out how to
    handle it, but help from this list might speed up my progress.

    1. In the exiscan documentation I read "you must set the spamd_address
       option Section 1 of the exim configuration as follows (example):"

       Where is Section 1 in the new fragmented form of configuration?

    2. Will the following router do the job (adapted from the FAQ)?

       hubbed_hosts:
            driver = manualroute
              transport = remote_smtp
              route_list = mailserver1 : mailserver2

    3. How will exim on spamscanner "know" do divide the mail aproximately
       equally between the two mailservers?

    Thanks for your help.

    Regards
    Johann
