I think that's what he was doing - exiting 99 when the spam value was > 99%.

My ponderance was if there could be a way to reinject this ALREADY processed
message for delivery, and cancel the other message silently. That would
avoid calling it twice. I see his idea having value, as it would be nice to
not even accept certain "known" spams rather than accepting them, delivering
them, and so on...

I'd be REALLY interested if this could be done globally instead of singly,
and as I was mentioning, I'll work on doing that by adding it to gordon's
valid sender filter perhaps...

What do you think?

I think there is not way out for him, then. As I understand it,
localmailfilter
code *is to be* invoked twice:

- firstly as recipientfilter (even before the DATA-Command, so spamassassin
  would be a no-go here as it would only be able to check the MAIL FROM and
  RCPT TO data),

- secondly as smtpfilter, that's the way Troy does it, but without a
  recipientfilter invoked previously exiting with a value of 99 IMHO there
is
  no difference between using ~/.mailfilters/smtpfilter and ~/.mailfilter
  directly.
