But since the spam isn't detected until it reaches the primary, you can't
reject it at the SMTP phase before the spammer has disconnected. You end up
bouncing to the From or Reply-to address, which is often forged.

You should always use the same spam and AV rules on all servers responsible
for a domain, so that any rejection or bounce happens at first submission.
