FW: [Mimedefang] Using a quarantine facility on remote mailserver?

Hi again, I have got this working by adding all but the top line to the
spamassassin bit in filter_end.  Can you tell me how the variable
"message_is_spam" is set for the if statement?  Would I need to define
this variable after the spamassassin check? Is this one of the built in
jobs?


Sorry if this is a daft question, but we all have to start somewhere...
;-)

What you want to do (pseudocode) is:

	if ($message_is_spam) {
	    # Add a header with original recipients, just for info
	    action_add_header("X-Orig-Rcpts", join(", ", @Recipients));

	    # Remove original recipients
	    foreach $recip (@Recipients) {
	        delete_recipient($recip);
	    }

	    # Send to spam address
	    add_recipient('<spamdrop at exchange.mydomain.net');
	}
