If I send a message that contains recipient addresses for both local
accounts (ex: someone CC's their boss) and external addresses (say a Hotmail
address) the external messages are processed through Declude and actions are
taken despite global.cfg actions being set to "Log" for outgoing messages.

That is correct.


If I simply send the message to the same hotmail address w/o any additional
recipient addresses that reside locally on the IMail server no Declude
scanning occurs.  What am I missing?

That is correct too.


The problem is with SMTP. When you send an E-mail to an internal and external address, you aren't sending an internal E-mail and an external E-mail. You are sending 1 E-mail that is both internal *and* external. When these conflicts occur, Declude JunkMail combines all actions that it can, and in the case of conflicts, chooses the "harsher" action. If you have outgoing settings for a spam test to LOG and incoming settings to DELETE, and an E-mail failing that test will be deleted if any of the recipients are local (and therefore the incoming actions are used).
