Thanks for your reply. Yes, that appears to be the case.
Surely qmail-scanner stops an email from being delivered if SpamAssassin detects the email as SPAM - like it blocks an email if a virus scanner detects that the email contains a virus ? Forgive me if I'm mistaken.
QS (or QS with the st patch) can reject spam at smtp level, if they score high enough. You'd have to look that up in QS (st patch) documentation.
Deleting messages with a score of 5.2 would be "dangerous" as false positives are much more common with spam assassin than it would be with a virus scanner.
QS tags a message (headers) if SA thinks it is spam. Configure your mua to filter out these messages.
