Yup, I've been following the debian-devel discussion, and figured you'd
end up going that way.

I'm not using debian's exim4-config package any more, so my interest in
this bug isn't very high currently; as far as I'm concerned, you can
feel free to close it, but you might want to add something like the
router I included in the bug to the README or something.

For what it's worth, I've been rejecting such mail on my server since I
filed this bug, and it's kept a _lot_ of spam off my system.
