I'm tempted to say that in that case the logic should be moved to a
separate module, which is imported to SpamDetect with the restriction
that REJECT is not available, while another Handler is created for
PolicyFilters.  They maintain separate rule lists etc.

Sound like a lot of work when simply documenting that spam should
_never_ be rejected should be enough.<wink>
