Spamassassin and exim4

Hi all,

debian testing
spamassassin 3.2.1
exim4-deamon-heavy 4.67

At present I have a huge amount of rule files loaded on to a system that does not process alot of mail (including sa-blacklist). This works fine the majority of the time but falls over as soon as someone at the office sends a mailout to their customers.

My question is - Does spamassassin scan the mail for each recipient? or does it scan only once? If it is the later I would not expect spamassassin to fall over each time one of these mailouts is sent.

Is this due to it being in the acl of exim? does anyone have any advice on how to avoid this?

If any other info is required please let me know.

Best Regards,
