[Cialug] SpamAssassin

[Claus]

Oh, I forgot to mention I also created two Maildir folders to which the 
user then can move mails to be learnd as ham/spam.  The following script 
does the actual processing:

$ cat /usr/local/bin/learn-spam
/usr/bin/sa-learn --spam --showdots ~/Maildir/.LearnAsSpam/cur/
/bin/rm ~/Maildir/.LearnAsSpam/cur/*
