From the mailman help:

  Use Defer to temporarily disable a rule.

Hold and Reject notify the sender, Discard just drops the mail without 
telling anyone

Or 'Reject', which would inform legitimate senders there is a problem 
(and the could tell us).

So 'Hold' for 'probably spam' and Discard/Reject for 'surely spam'
