        Toni, SpamAssassin is able to save preferences and user
options in the LDAP, that could help you. The other thing, using
simscan you can enable/disable SPAM or Virus checking on a
per-email basis using ~qmail/control/simcontrol.

        I'm using qmail-ldap + simscan + spamassassin + clamav on
a Debian Sarge (3.1) machine, that is going to be upgrade in a
few weeks. I have a real interest in use both SpamAssassin and
DSPAM to filter e-mails, specially if one could feed information
to the other, your setup is using DSPAM as the only spam filter?

        I really want to give it a try, but the training curve
seems to be larger than the pre-set rules from SA, not sure about
the results after a few months, but I heard lots of good stuff
about DSPAM and CRM114.
