Hi,

Last month or so I asked how to get the
spam.actions.rules setup so that messages for
particular users or domains that are known to be spam
are auto-deleted.

After some excellent answers, I then created my
ruleset for:

spam.actions.rules
high.scoring.spam.actions.rules

Which are of the following format (identical contents
for each file):

FromOrTo:    *@domain.com   delete
FromOrTo:    default        deliver

When delivered, the emails are tagged with the
"{Spam?}" tag.

My problem is, I still get emails tagged with
"{Spam?}" delivered, even though looking at the
maillog it shows action is to "delete".

My MailScanner.conf contains:

Spam Actions = %rules-dir%/spam.actions.rules
High Scoring Spam Actions =
%rules-dir%/high.scoring.spam.actions.rules

I'm using MailScanner 4.47.4-1 on Fedora Core.

Is there any advice anyone can give as to what to
check or how to make this work?

Thanks.

Michael.
