Bug 5484, obviously. Anyway, bug reports don't get ignored. It might happen,
though, that no developer got the spare time. We're volunteers.

You neglected to mention how you actually try to integrate SA. But reading
this, an obvious comment is, that SA does not alter mailboxes...

Probably cause that is not an FAQ...

Anyway, trying to be a little more helpful here, did you see the various hints,
howtos and ways how to integrate SA?

See... That's not how SA works. SA is designed to be integrated in your mail
processing chain. Not as an after-delivery mailbox-munging service.

Bugzilla is not the proper place for rants like this, neither for support and
usage questions. Please direct questions to the mailing list.
  http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/MailingLists

People do not want to register with Bugzilla either. Yet, they do...


Closing RESOLVED INVALID. And please don't abuse Priority and Severity.
