Error 421 should mean that the SMTP service on the receiving system isn't available.

Spamblocker is disabled by default.
Make sure that your /etc/use_rbl_domains file is empty.
You don't even have to restart exim (unless you've added a new exim.conf file).
First update to the newest exim.conf file.
Then make sure you all these files (they don't have to have anything in them but they need to exist) in /etc/virtual, even if SpamBlocker is shut off.
bad_sender_hosts
blacklist_domains
blacklist_senders
use_rbl_domains
whitelist_domains
whitelist_hosts
whitelist_senders
If you don't have them add them, and change the ownership to mail:mail and the permissions to chmod 644.

To disable SpamAssassin edit /etc/exim.conf as follows:
Find the section headed spamcheck_director:.
Comment out all the lines in that section.
Restart exim.
spamd will continue to run (removing it is a bit more complex and we don't bother) but it won't do anything and won't use much in the way of resources.

Everything is commented out (same as before spamassasin install). Still 30% Memory usage. Better than the 70-80% it was before. Still, I wished there was a warning before installing. I am using CentOS 4.4 , any information regarding to remove it, is welcome and much appreciated.

You can shut down spamd; how to do that depends on your OS Distribution, but unless you find out where it's started (that depends on your OS distribution) and remove that code, it may restart again if/when you restart exim or your server.
