Forwarding from remote client back to spamassassin

Hi,

Awesome, awesome thread, Big John. This has worked perfectly for me. Now I only get a couple of spam in my inbox in the morning.

But, now I'd like to tweak it a bit. Can you please help me?

What I'd like to do is avoid me or my resold hosting clients having to log in to the mail server and copy/move mail into SPAM and HAM folders on the server.

What I'd like to do instead, is to set up a ham@domain.com and spam@domain.com email account for each domain. When the user reads a ham or spam in their Outlook Express or other client on the home/office desktop, they would forward that ham or spam to ham@theirdomain.com or spam@theirdomain.com, filters on those mailboxes on the server would automatically move those messages into the appropriate HAM or SPAM folder for that new ham@ or spam@ users, and then your scripts would work their bayes training magic for everyone in that domain.

My only fear with this approach is that the forwarding from the remote client would obliterate or obfuscate the original spam or ham headers.

Can you please help me figure out this method of forwarding from remote mail clients to ham@ and spam@ mail accounts back on the mail server?

Thanks a million!
Pete
