Problem using the SpamAssassin Rule Actions

[Adrian Barker]

Thanks. What we would like to do is to be able to treat delivery reports 
in a different manner to spam, so that our users can filter spam and 
separately filter unwanted delivery reports. This can be done using the 
SpamAssassin 'Vbounce' rules, which then trigger the 'SpamAssassin Rule 
Actions' to add a header, but this results in a MailScanner error.
