I'm convinced this is a bad idea, but I'll throw it in
anyway, just in case it sparks better ones:
Munge the reply-to address on spam to dump it into the
training bucket. Then, the user just replies to the
message to train on it.
Reasons it won't work:
1. You don't want to encourage people to hit "Reply"
on spam.
2. You can't munge ham like this, and you've just
destroyed useful info in a FP.
3. You still need a way to get the original message
(you could do this by using an address of
spam+<ID>@localhost and trapping all addresses of
this form).
As I say, maybe there are some useful points somewhere
in this bad idea...
Paul.
PS Tim, your mailer quotes long source lines *really*
badly, making your replies very hard to read
sometimes. Is this something you can change?
