It's 3.04 - the latest stable build that's made it into "Gentoo Portage"

There are places to report them manually.

I'm familiar with razor-report, for example - but it is a real pain to mess about with this command line tool when all my mail is managed remotely over IMAP

I have a strong personal bias against automating anything related to
spam REPORTING. Please examine the downsides of automatic reporting
before proceeding.

I absolutely do not want to report automatically - in the sense that I am adamant that I want human intervention before reporting. Conversely - given the task of establishing a remote shell; finding the correct email in maildir - and verifying it is indeed the mail I determined was a spam in my email client - followed by manually reporting it individually to each service... I'm inclined not to bother. If, for example I had an IMAP folder into which I drop spam that my mail server should report on my behalf -then reporting would become far less of a chore.

Simple matter of coding. That is how I handle ham and spam training. I simply
dunk it into ham and spam folders and let a cron job run sa-learn over the
two folders. In this case you'd probably have to code up something that takes
the folder apart properly, forwards the mail appropriately, then tosses it.
I haven't done such a thing. But there are perl tools for reading messages
via IMAP that could be used as the core of a new tool.
