Hi folks, hope you can help.
setup: CentOS 6.4, SA 3.3.2, exim 4.76 with the "SpamBlockerTechnology powered exim.conf 4.1"

This is impacting all domains on the server. SA itself seems to be running ok; it correctly flags spam when it should, however the system seems to be ignoring the option to delete high scoring spam.
eg for one example domain -
directadmin options
Code:
Where do you want the spam to go? Inbox
What score threshold do you wish to use? Low (5)
Would you like to delete high scoring spam? Yes (higher than 12)
Do you wish to rewrite the subject of a spam email? No
How should the spam be delivered? Use attachments.

/etc/virtual/domain.com/filter.conf:
Code:
high_score=12
high_score_block=yes
where=inbox

/etc/virtual/domain.com/filter:
Code:
# Exim Filter

# created by DirectAdmin, version 1.43.0
# Do not modify this file as any changes will be
# overwritten when the user makes a change.
# (data is only written to this file, not read)
if error_message then finish endif

if
        $h_X-Spam-Level: contains "************"
then
        seen finish
endif

#end filter

relevant headers from an email which wasn't deleted:
Code:
X-Spam-Level: *****************
X-Spam-Status: Yes, score=18.0 required=5.0 tests=BAYES_50,FSL_HELO_NON_FQDN_1,
    HELO_LOCALHOST,MISSING_DATE,MISSING_MID,RCVD_IN_BL_SPAMCOP_NET,
    RCVD_IN_BRBL_LASTEXT,RCVD_IN_PBL,RCVD_IN_RP_RNBL,RCVD_IN_XBL,RDNS_NONE,
    TO_NO_BRKTS_NORDNS autolearn=spam version=3.3.2

Can anyone offer any clues? It's as if the 'filter' file is being completely ignored. I'm not sure which parts of the exim.conf are worth pasting here.
Thanks!
