I have an custom external test that gets passed the %NRECIPS%
variable. The test is never seeing a value for NRECIPS greater than
99. Is there something in the Declude code limiting this value to 99?
In some places in Declude JunkMail there is a limit of 100 recipients,
which is the
How do I go about doing this, while trying to keep the header intact so

sees the msg as if it was never intercepted?
I avoid that by using HOLD instead of ROUTETO and then using Spam Review to
check the message. If it is legit, simple place it back in the queue.

I'm not defending them at all but they really should use something other

I really think that's half of their perception problem.
Of course their guerilla tactics don't help!

Is there a way I can get access to the real number of recipients even if it is over
100 (without parsing the Q*.SMD file)?
Perhaps a new variable %NTOTALRECIPS% ?

Scott,
What about if you have SUBJECT 5 CONTAINS LINKS also? With that count
twice? I ask cause I haven't seperated them yet as SUBJECT, HEADERS, BODY
so will it fail the SUBJECT if it has links in the subject, and BODY if the
body has links in it? Or does it stop when it fails whichever is

In the next release, %NRECIPS% will reflect the actual number of
recipients, without the limit of 100 being imposed.

You can, using the weighting system. However, it is NOT RECOMMENDED.
Bouncing E-mail should *ONLY* been done when there is a very good chance
that it is legitimate mail (which is why bouncing should rarely be used --
99% of spam is sent with bogus return addresses, you just end up making
the
spam problem worse. For example, if you receive 1,000 spams a day that
are
caught (held) with the WEIGHT20 test, and then today change that action to
bounce the E-mail, you are increasing spam worldwide by 1,000 spams

Imagine if a spammer sends out 1,000,000 E-mails with *YOUR* return
address. How are you going to feel about the company or ISP that bounces
that spam to you?
I have adjusted my weights enough that the real spam does get trashed for
the most part. But the bounce messages help me know about

So even with Pro, all I need to do is drop them back in the Spool folder and
they'll get automatically delivered? This worked with Standard but I
thought we ran into a problem when we tried this with Pro since it does
outbound filtering as well.

Neither, actually. :)

Steve,
If I am not mistaken (Scott can correct me), since Declude has already looked
at it once, you can forward this to the intended user and it won't get scanned again
by JunkMail.
