Choices appear to be to quarantine it or to mark it as spam and deliver it to the recipient. In the latter case there would be an expectation that the recipient either dealt with spam himself or had set up his MUA (or copy of procmail) to recognise and deal with spam.

IOW different installations have different requirements and so the mail delivery chain on your site provides a lot of flexibility. However, this comes at a price. You have to understand the possibilities it provides and configure it to match your site's mail handling expectations. I would agree that amavisd documentation is somewhat opaque because it doesn't seem to contain a good overview of what it does and what options it offers. If you didn't find this reference yet, see if it helps: http://www.amavis.org/amavisd-new-docs.html Martin
