Not quietly deleting (version 3.21-1)

[John Goggan]

Just to note, I appear to be getting this same behavior.  I am also running
3.21 and using f-protect.  And, I am fairly certain that it was working
properly before I upgraded, although I guess I am not absolutely positive.

I double-checked that F-Prot was detecting them as "W32/Klez.H at mm" -- and that
is what I have in my ignore file.

Basically, people that email Klez to me (although they really didn't, of
course, since Klez fakes the from and that's why we want to ignore them) are
still getting emailed back that they sent a virus our way.

(Note that someone else answered you and said that Julian already explained
this and that it is working properly -- I disagree.  You said that you're
still getting email notifications BESIDES postmaster -- which means that they
aren't being deleted quietly/properly.  I think he missed that.  Unless I'm
misunderstanding something...)
