Hello all,

The latest version of imanager (2.11) has a very fairly easy to use
SpamAssassin interface but it hasn't been updated yet to take full advantage
of the current version of SA.  Specifically, Bayes database training.

I figure Rus will get to this in due time but I needed something now so I
threw this hack together last weekend.  Only tested on a VPS2 with Imanager
2.11 and SA 2.63.  Your mileage may vary.  Use at your own risk.

http://dvgroup.com/imanager211_with_bayes_training.tar.gz

Features:

   * Mail listing color coded.  Red lines are tagged as spam by SA.

   * Can manually feed selected spam/ham back into SA to train bayes
database.

   * Can define the {INBOX} as the Filtered Mail Folder.  In effect,
enabling
     SA tagging to add the spam headers but leaving all mail in your inbox.

I tell folks to set their email clients to leave messages on the server for
a few days and use their own filters to process the messages.  Gives them
another option if they don't want to risk SA dumping legitimate email.

Email headers to look for when filtering client-side...

   X-Spam-Flag: YES  (or NO)
   X-Spam-Level: * (a number of asterisks equal to the SA score)

This is a quick hack.  Feedback is appreciated.  I already thought of a few
improvements I could make but it works and I figure Rus will come up with
something better eventually.

Enjoy,
Ric
