An excellent point.  As it stands now the only way to run spamassasin is
through procmail (well okay Mail::Audit too but nobody really uses that
[/me puts on flame retardent pants here]).  But if you're using Kmail
and checking directly via POP or IMAP you can't use procmail so it won't
work.  Which comes back to my statement that it's impossible to do
because there are too many different client/server configuration
possibilities.
