Appended are the log records (there are just 3) for a message caught by
MCP on a 4.42.9 system and which, because it scored 10, should be
deleted. There are no further Sendmail records because MailScanner
deleted it although it has not logged that fact. That is the bug!

I am seeing the same bug when the score is 20 or 30.
