Clarification about qurantine vs. D_DISCARD

Hi,

I am reading amavis documentation and would like some clarification
about the way amavis is handeling the a message score by SpamAssassin.

With a configuration like:

$sa_tag_level_deflt  = 2.0;  # add spam info headers if at, or above that level
$sa_tag2_level_deflt = 5.0;  # add 'spam detected' headers at that level
$sa_kill_level_deflt = 15.0;  # triggers spam evasive actions (e.g. blocks mail)
$sa_quarantine_cutoff_level = 25; # spam level beyond which quarantine is off
...
$final_spam_destiny       = D_DISCARD;

I am trying to understand if the action will be:

- a mail with a score less than 5 is not spam and delivered to the
  recipient
- a mail with a score between 5 and 14.99 is tagged and delivered to the
  recipient
- a mail with a score above 15 is quarantined and not delivered
- a mail with a score above 25 is not quarantined and not delivered

In other words, $final_spam_destiny is triggered by @sa_kill_level_deflt
and not by @sa_tag2_level_deflt.

Am I understanding properly?

Thanks in advance,

Olivier
