I already posted this, but here it is again:
mkdir spool; cd spool
perl /usr/share/doc/spamassassin-tools-2.63/tools/mboxsplit -f "%06i" <
../Mailbox
cd ..
foreach i in spool/*; do
if spamassassin --exit-code < $i > temp; then
cat temp >> HAM
else
cat temp >> SPAM
fi
rm temp
done
This is what I used for sorting.

Yeah, it works (as does the script above), but I thought maybe there was a
quicker alternative, since there are a lot of unattended mailboxes I tought
I'd clean up.
But fair enough, it can be done via procmail or with spamassassin
--exit-code.
