Hmmmm....I tried deny+delete in filename.rules.conf AND filetype.rules.conf and the message still flows to the user.

Look in the top of the example filename.rules.conf or
filetype.rules.conf file.
Instead of "allow" or "deny" you can put "deny+delete" which will do
what you want, if my memory serves me correctly.
