It can affect whether a recipient receives spam or not however. No, the reason mail was not discarded was because mail was not going into your quarantine in the first place. You set: $sa_kill_level_deflt = 99996.31; which prevented quarantining. The $sa_quarantine_cutoff_level only affects mail that is destined for the quarantine. If you want to delete spam that scores over 19, you could set: $sa_kill_level_deflt = 19; $sa_quarantine_cutoff_level = 19; For that matter, you could conceptually set $sa_quarantine_cutoff_level at any number equal to or lower than $sa_kill_level_deflt, but this is not how it's typically done. It would be more common to do something like: $sa_kill_level_deflt = 19; $sa_quarantine_cutoff_level = undef; $spam_quarantine_to = undef; Setting "$spam_quarantine_to = undef;" means you have no place to quarantine the spam, therefore, spam over kill_level is not quarantined at all (but messages may still may be delivered to recipients, depending on $final_spam_destiny and/or spam_lovers settings). If you set: $final_spam_destiny = D_DISCARD; along with the settings above (and you have not changed @spam_lovers_maps from the default) then mail that scores at 19 or greater will disappear. > > or, to delete high scoring spam, set this at some level higher than > > kill_level, e.g.: $sa_quarantine_cutoff_level = 30; > Ok. > >> (Later I want it to be deleted.) > > I assume you mean you will delete it manually (or programatically). > I meant "later i want to change the config, so amavis deletes this spam > instead of mail it to a mailbox."
