Hold mail when the TO and FROM address are the same as the personality email address.
Having an incoming email appear as if it is coming from you to you is a common tatic for spammers. By checking this box emails that meet this criteria will automatically be held.

Delete Held Mail After XX Days
If selected TNLAS will delete any held messages after the number of days specified if the sender does not confirm themselves. This prevents your HELD mail box from getting cluttered with tons of messages and taking up hard drive space.
