I've tried the reloading - still no luck. And it all seemed so simple.
I have:
Archive Mail = /etc/MailScanner/rules/logSpamTrolls.rules
And in that file:
To: edhunt_1 at webcam.com /var/log/spam/
To: duckvonlong at webcam.com /var/log/spam/
To: oral at webcam.com /var/log/spam/
To: fcdxsza at webcam.com /var/log/spam/
FromOrTo: default no
I still get 2 files per email.
