By all means do it in your own filter, but leave the stock filter alone.
I wasn't proposing changing the stock behavior. I was suggesting
including a
2- or 3-way switch controlled by a variable that allowed the behavior to
be made
more or less permissive, and have it controlled by a variable.
The variable would be set so that the gate chosen would continue to be the
current behavior.
I.e.
my $extreme_paranoia = 0;
...
if ($extreme_paranoia == 1) {
# bounce it with a warning...
} elsif ($extreme_paranoia == 2) {
# silently drop it...
} else {
# default: flag the spam
}
Just to include the code in the template, so it offers some alternatives
that
could be turned on.
