Is there a version of exim.conf without spamblocker 'code' in it available? I prefer to just let Spamassassin and greylisting take care of spam.
 
As far as i remember no, but you can use a standard exim.conf file from exim.org website and customize it as you prefer.

But honestly, i highly discourage this way... SB is an excell system that integrate with SpamAssassin and also with some edit with greylisting (which i tryed and left it out since was causing more issue than benefits for the big providers as gmail)

Note there's an easy way to do this, which still keeps all the DirectAdmin specific configurations intact:

From my ReadMe file:

NOTE: This SpamBlockerTechnology powered exim.conf file may be set up
to default to block spam for all domains and use an administrator-
maintained list of domains to exclude from spamblocking

or

to default to allow spam for all domains and use an administrator-
maintaned list of domains for which to perform spamblocking

INSTRUCTIONS for setting up SpamBlockerTechnology defaults:

BLOCK SPAM FOR ALL DOMAINS NOT IN EXCLUSION LIST:
Instead of a file at /etc/virtual/use_rbl_domains, create a
symbolic link from /etc/virtual/use_rbl_domains to /etc/virtual/domains
and
Populate the file at /etc/virtual/skip_rbl_domains as an exclusion
list, copying the domain names as they appear in /etc/virtual/domains
to /etc/virtual/skip_rbl_domains

BLOCK SPAM ONLY FOR DOMAINS IN INCLUSION LIST:
Maintain a file at /etc/virtual/use_rbl_domains, copying the domain
names as they appear in /etc/virtual/domains to
/etc/virtual/use_rbl_domains
Note that I no longer recommend using my file, because the CustomBuild 2 sysem maintains all my features and more automatically. But the points in the ReadMe file, quoted above, are still valid, and will work.

Set up files so you'll only block spam for domains in inclusion list, and then don't put any files into the inclusion list.

Where is the readme file located? I saw it mentioned in exim.conf but could find it nowhere on server.
