[FW1] Retries from Remote SMTP servers with ESPG

I have recently enabled the SMTP security server on FW-1 3.0b and it 
is working fine with the CVP Scanner eSafe Protect gateway 2.0 (build 
93) to scan inbound emails.

On receipt of a non-removable infected SMTP mail, eSafe deletes the 
attachment and sends the sender and recipient a notification message.

The problem is that many Internet (ISP) mail servers do not seem to 
get the idea that the mail message is not wanted and retry sending the 
message at whatever retry intervals have been set until it eventually 
times-out.  Is there an obvious way to configure either FW-1 or eSafe 
such that remote mail servers will not retry the message if it has 
been rejected?
