emails that attempt to kill mailscanner

[Jonathan Horne]

hmmm, its only some emails, not all of them (and its always emails that i would never accept anyway, high scoring spam).  

 

taking a look at hte mailscanner.conf file, i dont see offhand where to add a -U.  any tips?

this problem is normally caused by config issues, like not having the -U switch set in the main MailScanner executable.

i didnt try it yet... but if i set the number of attempts to 0 what will happen? i would like to just delete these emails immeidately, i dont see a need to retry it after 5 minutes.
 
if 0 is not the right way to accomplish this, what is the correct way to dump emails that attempt to kill the process?
 
thanks,
jonathan
