P.O.'s Messages Folder Folly

[Marc Kaiwi <marc@xxxxxxxxx>]

Elton,

I can see that every message that gets filtered by my SMTP filters 
gets stored in this folder. Thousands of them each day. I have done 
everything I can to try and find out why this happens ... As far as I 
know I'm not an open relay and I have my Error Response Parameters 
set exactly as you have described.

This has been happening (with me anyway) ever since I first installed 
P.O. over a year ago.

I have asked on the list and directly to tenon support dozens of 
times about this without success.

So please, if anyone knows what's going on with P.O.'s messages 
folder, help us out.

Thanks again,

MK
