   discard
        hosts = +nodenybutdiscard
        message = Discarding: Classified as spam (score $spam_score)
        condition = ${if <{$message_size}{120k}{1}{0}}
        spam = nobody
        # spamscore >> 10
        condition = ${if >{$spam_score_int}{150}{1}{0}}
   deny message = Classified as spam (score $spam_score)
        condition = ${if <{$message_size}{120k}{1}{0}}
