[Mailman-Users] Move away Spamassassin marked E-Mails per cron

[Bernhard Reiter]

Maybe somebody finds this little cronscript piece useful.
You need to add it to the crontab for the user running "mailman".

It is useful for people that use Spamassassin to mark all mail
in the header. If you put X-Spam-Status: Yes in your header to hold,
then these message will be placed on hold. This might place a burden
on you, if you get a lot of spam, because you have to discard them
all manually via the web-interface.

The script will periodically move the marked spam away 
in a directory ~mailman/data/marked_spam. Thus if you enter the
admindatabase you will see a message one like Message #901 lost.

Of course the ~mailman/data/marked_spam directory has to exist.

@hourly grep --no-messages -l '^X-Spam-Status: Yes, hits=' $HOME/data/heldmsg-*-* | xargs --replace mv {} $HOME/data/marked_spam/
