I am noticing blatant spam getting through that is coming from hosts listed in 
certain RBL's, should i be adding more RBL lists into exim.conf to remedy this 
? 

Is there any harm in letting SA or MailScanner handle RBL's so that false 
positives are stored and able to release to end users ?

the rbl checks are being done by exim at smtp time, there is no point in 
processing messages from folks who are on an rbl

the rbls in sa do not need enabling, the puppet install enables spamcop checks 
in mail scanner as there are too harsh to use at smtp time

that is because baruwa overides the default options in mailscanner.conf using 
baruwa.conf
