Just wondering as this would be an easier approach considering you could filter mail marked as spam into a mail folder and train Dspam that way. POP3 would work fine except for the training portion of dspam. Even though my setup uses IMAP people can still download the contents of their inbox which would be clean. Training could be done by forwarding ham and spam to email aliases which would be pretty basic using .qmail-alias files. Would forwarding distort the message since it would appear to be coming from the recipient (forwarder) instead of the original sender? How would dspam handle this? I imagine it would. To train spamassassin this way, you need to "bounce" or redirect the message to a spam account for it to learn from. Sorry, I just jumped in the middle of this.
