It doesn't?  Then what is host_reject for?  Or the ability to use local 
rbl-type files?

Did you even bother looking at the exim documentation?  It's very 
comprehensive and answers all of your questions.  Some of the "advanced spam 
features" that you asked about are:

* callback verification
* filtering (it would be cruel to liken it to procmail filtering, but it's in 
the same general ballpark in that you can reject/drop/delete/forward based on 
header information)
* ability to write custom headers for "suspect" email that users can then use 
in their own filtering

and others that I'm sure I've overlooked.

Is there a reason you decided to jump all over exim today?  Your message came 
across as quite hostile and sarcastic  Perhaps it wasn't intended that way.
