(Unrelated to the subject, but I'm kind of curious what others do with the spam markings ...)

I'm probably a lot better at identifying spam than spamassassin, so if I look at each email anyway (or even at just the sender and subject) then there'd be little point in marking spam. So instead I automatically sort in different folders based on the spamassassin result. To be precise, if the spam score is from 5.0 to 8.9 I put it in 'junk', if higher I put it in 'bad'. Unless I know someone sent me mail I didn't see, I only rarely glance through the junk folder, to see if I recognize any senders. So indeed the important emails were not lost, but I saw their time-sensitive content too late. Incidentally, I use slocal (part of the nmh suite) to sort into folders. -Marcel van der Goot
