Thanks, I don't really want to spend time on more than simple 
configuration options. The reason for starting this query was that 
"reject" can result in the mail relay that transferred the bad email 
referring it to senders and/or relay manager. I don't see emails with 
viruses at all often, so maybe I'll just accept that.
