No it doesn't. Not if you reject during SMTP. Collateral spam is
generated when you accept a message and then generate a bounce.
What the original author of this thread is looking for here is
fakereject. If you do this:
"accept control = fakereject"
Then the message will look to the sender as though it has been accepted,
but instead of hitting the routers it will just disappear into a blackhole.
I don't get why you want to "/dev/null" the message though...? If you
don't like the way the 550 error message looks just change it, eg:
deny malware = *
message = Malware attached
Would return "550 Malware attached"
