There is no reason to place the result into SA. SA has its own bayes
implementation (which I think is not as good). I use SA (it is the final
check before acceptance) during the SMTP session without the bayes filter;
just rule based.

Thinks for your feedback. Here's what I want to do.
There will be only one user. An exim filter will save the message to a
file and execute a script that will pipe the message into a program I
wrote to modify the measage and pipe it into dspam. The output of
dspam, which I hope will be a fraction like spamprobe between 0 and 1,
will be poped into a perl script that will return words that will
indicate how spammy or happy the result is. This text result will then
be put into a header and Spamassassin with score it.
So - this should be fairly easy I hope. What do you think?
