Bounce/Forward, Forward/Delete.

[Carles Xavier Munyoz Baldó]

Ok, I believe that I have not explained well what I want to do :-)

I have an AUTHENTICATED RELAY SMTP server, a SMTP server that my users use for 
send email to the Internet, but they must authenticate before do it.

The thing I want to do is detect which users are trying to send spam and not 
send this spam detected messages to the internet.

I believe that the thing I must do is set up the default action in my spam 
actions ruleset file to:
FromOrTo:    default  forward spammers at mydomain.com delete

This way I will be able to identify the spammers (because I receive a copy of 
the spam identified messages, the spammers will not be aware of this 
identification) and my system will not send spam to the Internet.
Is this ok with this configuration ?
