I am wondering why my rule below is still delivering the spam BOTH to the
Maildir I specify as a cc (to collect spam for bayesian feeding) AND to
the original user's maildir:
if ( /^X-Spam-Level: \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*/ )
{
log "%% Utter spam rejected %%"
cc "/home/mail/spam/Maildir"
EXITCODE=99
exit
}
Shouldn't the mailfilter exit and NOT deliver to the default Maildir? I
see the log message above in the log.
