The idea isn't to intercept the messages on the server; it's to
intercept them on the client before they're dumped into your inbox. The
theory is that most mail clients will run their own classification rules
on incoming messages before making them available to Spambayes. Outlook
doesn't, which is why the Outlook version of Spambayes allows you to
delay application of its clasification rules until (one hopes) Outlook
is finished.
