[Mimedefang] Filtering for external e-mail addresses

[Matthew Rossiter]

It looks like mail that is aliased to external email addresses is actually
getting tagged and sent out regardless of the score, but not redirected to
my spam folder.  

"Content analysis details:   (35.4 points, 5.0 required)"

Is there something I can modify so that it not only tags messages but
discards them into a spam folder?  That's why I was thinking of using
procmailrc.

A copy of my mimedefang-filter can be found here

Thanks for your help.

Matt
