Using mailwatch with mailscanner and releasing spam

[Steve Mason]

Hmm, not sure where my last reply went, I'll try again..
You need to tell Mailscanner to store spam, in addition to what you're
doing now.  In my case low scoring spam was forwarded to
junkmail at mydomain, so I added store, forward to the Spam Actions.
High Scoring is store, delete.
You can also uncomment clean.quarantine in your cron.daily to keep the
quarantine from getting too big.
