Bug#410137: Please provide an example config for exiscan and spamassassin

Package: exim4-daemon-heavy
Version: 4.63-17
Severity: wishlist

Although the exim4-daemon-heavy package includes the ability to do
content scanning now, there're no instructions available in standard
places as to how to use it.

Please put example config fragments in the
/usr/share/doc/exim4-daemon-heavy/examples directory, or at least some
URLs in the README.Debian for exim4.

(/usr/share/doc/exim4/README.Debian.gz  currently says, 
   `If you need more advanced features like LDAP, sqlite, PostgreSQL and
   MySQL data lookups, SASL and SPA SMTP authentication, embedded Perl
   interpreter, and exiscan-acl for integration of virus-scanners and
   SpamAssassin, you can replace exim4-daemon-heavy instead of
   exim4-daemon-light.'

which isn't very helpful if you've installed exim4-daemon-heavy and
want to know how to use it.)

Ideally, there'd be a file one could copy into
/etc/exim4/conf.d/acl and have it mostly `just work', or at least have
a starting point to edit.
