You can do that to. Change the line to:

High Scoring Spam Actions = store attachment forward
rgreen at trayerproducts.com

Hello. I'm using MailScanner (I am not sure which version) along with
Postfix. While tweaking SpamAssassin I was looking at headers of some spam
I've received and noticed that my address is not anywhere in the headers. An
address of a co-worker is but mine is nowhere to be found. I checked
mailscanner.conf and the forward directive is not set for spam. Any ideas on
how I'm receiving mail addressed to another user? I've checked my virtual
maps file as well as my aliases file and nothing is setup to forward mail to
me. The only mail I'm getting addressed to the co-worker is spam.

Thanks,
Rod
