And maybe because there isn't an official 2.40 yet. It's 2.40-cvs and
changes from day to day. Or, to cite the page [1]: "these are built nightly
from CVS. They may be unstable!". One and a half good reason :o)

I have such a system.  It works like this :
1)  sa-exim scans the message during the SMTP interaction
2)  if it scores high enough it is rejected
2.1)    if it is rejected, exim mentions that in the reject log
2.2)    if it isn't rejected it is delivered
2.2.1)  it is up to the user to deal with (filter as
desired) the lower-scoring spam
3)  I have a script run as a daily cron job to run through the
reject log and deposit a report in the user's home directory
indicating what was rejected and way (SA isn't the only cause
for rejection)
Obviously my setup is rather tied to exim and sa-exim, but if you want
the reporting script I can send it to you.
