Hi,

I believe what he meant wasn't the quotation marks.
But you're missing the "s" at the end of "actions".
The line in my config file is like this:
Spam Actions = deliver

You dont have the "s"

About the blocking, while in /etc/mail (where I presume the virtusertable
file is) you should write "make" (again, assuming there is a "Makefile"
file there).

I dont rember from the top of my head the command to make the
virtusertable file, but you should en up with "virtusertable" and
"virtusertable.db" files.
(So its not enough just to edit the files)

Atleast it's like this on those systems I've worked on.



w/regards
