gvery specific to ask an admin, maybe I could get them
to do it for me.. I am not sure what that might be in
terms of the filter account, but I appreciate the

Normally, you would run a new message through SA before it gets to your
mailbox. If you need to do this at the user level (rather than in the
MTA) the common method is with procmail:

You can pass a whole mailbox to spamassassin with the --mbox option but
you are still going to have the problem of overwriting an active mailbox
file and possibly loosing mail. Procmail would be a better way to go
for future mail.
