I don't have a nobody alias set up. It seems to me that Declude takes the incoming mail and does the tests (spam, virus) before putting it into the inbox. If somebody writes to a non-existent mail that fails the test with a weight that is set to "HOLD", it will be stored in the spam folder instead of returning it. Is this by design?
