[Mimedefang] Reject Spam instead of tag it

[Jamie Pratt]

Wouldn't it make more sense to send the spams to a local system account, 
for later perusal in case of FP's? That's what we do anyhow - I don't 
think there really is a solution to this that is feasible/practical in 
today's environment... Also, can anyone clarify the EXACT difference(s) 
between BOUNCE and REJECT? I think some of us are confused here - as I 
understand it, bounce is just that - bounce. Reject is at SMTP level, 
correct? - why would REJECT cause bounces, as I usually just get an SMTP 
error when I test, and no "bounce" message?

TIA,
jamie
