QMail spam
we had an emergency situation and had to rebuild a qmail server last night.
Email now that is designated as spam gets stuck in a loop and we get a ndr.
I would like for email not destined for a valid account or classified as spam be deleted rather then forwarded on to our exchange server.
All users have a forward setup in /qmail/alias/.qmail-username
email for
user@domain.com is setup as follows.
|forward "Local@exchange.domain.com"
This causes a loop because
smap@exchange.domain.com does not exist.
The email eventually is returned to sender.
We would like for email classified as spam be deleted immediately rather than forwarded to the spam address.
I am unfamiliar with qmail so any help is appreciated.

mail::spamassassin::plugin::spamcop
Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::SpamCop(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::SpamCop(3)
NAME
Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::SpamCop - perform SpamCop reporting of messages
SYNOPSIS
loadplugin Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::SpamCop
DESCRIPTION
SpamCop is a service for reporting spam. SpamCop determines the origin of unwanted email and reports it to the relevant Internet service
providers. By reporting spam, you have a positive impact on the problem. Reporting unsolicited email also helps feed spam filtering
systems, including, but not limited to, the SpamCop blacklist used in SpamAssassin as a DNSBL.
Note that spam reports sent by this plugin to SpamCop each include the entire spam message.
See http://www.spamcop.net/ for more information about SpamCop.
USER OPTIONS
spamcop_from_address user@example.com (default: none)
This address is used during manual reports to SpamCop as the From: address. You can use your normal email address. If this is not
set, a guess will be used as the From: address in SpamCop reports.
spamcop_to_address user@example.com (default: generic reporting address)
Your customized SpamCop report submission address. You need to obtain this address by registering at "http://www.spamcop.net/". If
this is not set, SpamCop reports will go to a generic reporting address for SpamAssassin users and your reports will probably have less
weight in the SpamCop system.
spamcop_max_report_size (default: 50)
Messages larger than this size (in kilobytes) will be truncated in report messages sent to SpamCop. The default setting is the maximum
size that SpamCop will accept at the time of release.
