mlmmj control/access discard spam first, then deny html

Description
Whilst looking at issue 69004, I noticed some 3000 queued mails on anna. It looks like a lot of spam, denied due to HTML contents. I took a quick look at the mlmmj access settings, and we first deny HTML content, then we discard spam. I think it ought to be the other way around - first discard spam, then deny HTML content. I think that'll significantly reduce the queue on anna/elsa. Now I just have to come with a sed incantation to edit the access settings for our 118 lists :)
- Private changed from Yes to No
What we typically have is this (probably from the list template)
deny ^X-Spam-Status:.*HTML_MESSAGE
discard ^X-Spam-Level: \*\*\*\*\*\*
discard ^X-Spam-Flag: YES
I suggest this is better:
discard ^X-Spam-Level: \*\*\*\*\*\*
discard ^X-Spam-Flag: YES
deny ^X-Spam-Status:.*HTML_MESSAGE
Now I just have to come with a sed incantation to edit the access settings for our 118 lists :)
diff -u and patch might be more helpful in this case ;-)

thanks, that is obviously a much better answer!
- Due date set to 2020-08-07
- Status changed from New to In Progress
I have changed a few of the lists, maybe 20 or so, I'll wait and see if it has any effect on how much we are denying, I would expect to see a drop.

The number of queued mails on 'anna' has dropped to about 900, which could be seen as a significant improvement. Or just seasonal variation :-)

Today 1000 mails queued,
- 150 are outbound to someone@huckcloud.tk - unable to resolve.
- 215 outbound to gmail, account full or delivery too rapid
- 270 outbound to celestika, connection refused
- 65 outbound to lonestar, timeout
- 31 outbound to iae.ping.de - Can not forward mail via smtp
- 25 outbound to planet-school.de - does not resolve.
- 30 disguise.ga - connection refused.
- 31 pompous.com.hk - does not resolve.
- 31 ljung.it - does not resolve
- 22 schweb.com.ar - does not resolve.
After some more filtering it leaves about 95, of which quite a few are web_jekyll and the bounces. Some were from nginx on pontifex. I have fixed the cron job to send to admin-auto instead.
- Status changed from In Progress to Closed
- % Done changed from 0 to 100
As we do not run mlmmj any longer. I asume we can simply drop this Ticket.
