Silent discard mail is mostly forbidden in the EU, but someone may do so with its own mail. Policy differ with virus mails, but not for spam. There maybe exceptions, if your customer explicit contracted and allowed you to discard his mail ( i am no lawer ). Best way is reject on smtp income level tagging the rest, differ handling "may" lead to legal trouble..., also typical quarantaine "may" lead to equal legal trouble. Using silent discard for avoiding backscatter reasons is bad design and should not be needed.
