Just a quick note.


vdelivermail already parses headers to make sure mail is not looping. It could easily check for SpamAssassin headers and filter based on that. Again, this would be a compile-time option, and those who know how to use maildrop/procmail could do their fancy filtering there.


Hummm,

Is that a good idea ?  Say a spam slips through that forges the SA headers ?

(Yes, I'm playing devil's advocate here, since SA already checks for just that type of thing and ignores them/strips them out, but what happens when some new admin doesn't install SA correctly and the mail does NOT get scanned by SA but the spammers have made it look like it has.)

I'll keep quiet now :)
