the spam training program has no access to the Homes).

Could this be implemented with a separate namespace? Any hints
about how to do this?

I don't think that there's much point in having a separate namespace as opposed to just creating a mailbox (or a directory of mailboxes) named "spam" or "junk" to deposit the spam.


Some clients handle namespaces poorly, so a simple mailbox or directory is probably a better place for the spam...
