So as far a I know, the tagging happens here, but I don't see anything
in the email though.
Spamassassin is obviously being used then. I would expect that it is
being accessed through sa-exim; what you probably want to do is edit
/etc/exim4/sa-exim.conf
and set SApermreject to a sensible value (fairly high, as this will
bounce messages so that they never get to your inbox).
20 would probably be a reasonably good start; you can (cautiously)
reduce it from there if you find that you are getting no ham above some
value.
(You'll need to restart Exim after this)
There is a separate question implicit in your post: that you want to
filter SA-flagged messages into a junk folder in your MUA.
There are a few options for this. The easiest (not necessarily best!) is
to enable rewrite_header in /etc/spamassassin/local.cf and then add a
message rule that subject starts with *****SPAM***** gets moved to a
folder. It isn't a great plan if you are resending to a mailing list
(breaks DKIM etc.), so the alternative is to inspect the X-Spam-Status
header directly. How to / if you can do that is strongly MUA dependent.
