I no longer use SA but when I did, I used it via sa-exim which is able
to rewrite the subject line (eg put something like Subject:S-P-A-M:
<original_subject>) and put the spam report into the body of the
message and make the original message an attachment - in effect
defanging it for MUAs that auto view.

I wont go into the relative merits from my perspective of anti-spam
solutions (I use rspamd these days) but I still consider sa-exim's
abilities a bit of a killer feature if you are a Spam Assassin user.

There is a Debian package and the config file for sa-exim is well
documented. You get graylisting for free if you fancy it as well and a
lot more besides.

If you have a much loved SA setup and a penchant for Exim then I really
recommend adding sa-exim.
