I've set it to:
High Scoring Spam Actions = store

and I've also done:
High Scoring Spam Actions = %rules-dir%/high.spam.rules
and in high.spam.rules, I put:
FromOrTo:       name at isp.com    delete
FromOrTo:       name2 at isp2.com  delete
FromOrTo:       default store

It works in the second instance, but in the first, I still get the message
delivered (as opposed to just storing it, which is what happens with all of
my other high scoring spam).

Thanks,
Alden
