Actually, I had something a bit more simple in mind - and a (very) brief 
look at ASSP code seems like it wouldn't be a big deal to implement.  In 
the filepath configuration section, add an option for "Treat paths as 
Maildirs".  Then, in the locations where the logged mails are saved - 
based on that config setting - either use the default behaviour or (spam 
as an example) write to $spamlog/tmp, move to $spamlog/new - and have 
rebuildspamdb look to $spamlog/cur.  I barely know enough about perl to 
write "hello, world!" - but looking at the code for ASSP gives lie to 
the belief that perl has to be unreadable.

Timeout here for a sincere compliment on the code used by the ASSP 
developers.

I'm selfish.  Just because it would be NICE to support every backend, 
doesn't mean we have to.  I run Linux, I use maildir, ASSP already is 
designed to work with the mails as individual files in folders - looks 
like a simple add-on.  For those who do not use maildirs - they don't 
have the option and continue to use the email-interface.

This is true - and I do use the email-interface - but a folder 
management interface can be much easier for an administrator to utilize.
