Very interesting. How does the external quarantine agent work? What sort of
api is there?

I believe the changes would only affect 2 small localized areas, one in
dspam.c and another in dspam.cgi correct?
In theory, yes. In practice, I was planning on using an external
quarantine
agent (which dspam already supports), rather than add any code to dspam.c
to
handle maildir folders. And the changes to dspam.cgi would be better
handled by
abstracting all of the message extraction code out (so it could handle
either
mbox or maildir based on a configuration setting).
In my dreams, I forsee a time where the user could specify they only
wanted to
see 50 messages per page out of the quarantine folder, since some people
get
_huge_ amounts of spam <raises hand> that make it very painful to have a
single
page listing...
