Under SpamPal Options/Message Tagging my preference is to *not* check
"Mark subject lines.." or "Display X-SpamPal: header in subject
lines." This way SpamPal puts the classification information in the
message's hidden kludge area. I think it looks less tacky this way.

If you create a filter in The Bat to look for "^X-SpamPal: SPAM"
(minus the quotes) in the kludge or anywhere you can move the messages
to your spam folder automatically. Erroneously classified mail (if you
have any) will still have the altered kludge, but it won't be in the
Subject field which would look rather annoying.

If you place your SpamPal filter after your mailing list filters, and
your Known filter (people in your address books), I think you'll find
little if any erroneously classified spam. You might get an occasional
unrecognized spam that you can easily add to the Bayesian plug-in.

I've been running SpamPal for a few months and honestly don't recall
any mail erroneously classified as spam. I might get 1 or 2
unrecognized spam each week and average 45-50 spam/day.
