THIS IS A TEST INSTANCE. ALL YOUR CHANGES WILL BE LOST!!!!
...
For MUAs (Like Netscape/Mozilla) that do a good job with keeping orignal headers intact, (almost) all you need to do is forward the email to the feedback account and strip off the header added by the forward ( provided that you forward inline. I'll try to update bayes_fixup.pl for forwarding as attachment at a later date). This can be done by calling a filter from the ~/.procmailrc file of the learner accounts. (I apologize for putting these scripts in the Wiki, but I have no publically accessable location to post them, If someone who does has that capability, and could just replace them with links, I'd appreciate it)I am not sure how sa-learn will interpret a signature when you forward email inline, so you should probably delete your .sig before forwarding the message.
I call spamc from /etc/procmailrc, but I make sure that it does't filter mail to is_spam and not_spam

# This filter is designed to pull off the forwarding headers for mail
# forwarded to is_spam or not_spam from an MUA that includes all
# headers. ( as opposed to outlook, which does not include all
# headers, and thus must be resent instaed of forwarded. )
#
# In a forwarded message from Netscape/Mozilla, you will have:
#
# From ...
# ...
# From: (matches envelope from)
# ...
# one or more blank lines
# -------- Original Message --------
# From: (a date code for the forwading MUA)
# The original Headers
#
# You will not have:
# Sender:
#
# Not sure if the Netscape stuff is valid for HTML mode.

So all of the above handles delivery of a nearly (except for the 'envelope From') untainted message to the spam (is_spam) and ham (not_spam) accounts on the server. Note that these messages live where sendmail sends them. Next you need to run sa-learn on them, and sa-learn requires they first be split into individual messages. To do that, I call another script (learn_spam.pl) from cron. Since I'm using a Redhat Linux box I do it like this:
/etc/cron.daily/learnspam ( When you are testing, remove the redirect to /dev/null and cron will automatically email you (assuming you are root) the output from learn_spam.pl):

Since I have several other apps that also require splitting a mail file I wrote splitmail (or maybe I borrowed it from someone else, I'm not sure) as a library.
/usr/local/lib/splitmail.pl:
| No Format |
|---|
#!/usr/bin/perl
#
# splits a file containing multiple messages into individual files
#
use strict;
sub splitmail {
my $infile = shift;
my $outdir = shift;
my $count = 0;
open(INFILE, "< $infile") or die "Can't open $infile: $!\n";
while(<INFILE>) {
/^From / and do {
close(OUTFILE) if $count;
open(OUTFILE, "> $outdir/$count") or die "Can't open $outdir/$count: $!\n";
$count++;
};
print OUTFILE $_;
}
close(OUTFILE);
}
1;

Alternately, you can use this wrapper for sa-learn and call it from a .qmail file for on-the-fly split-and-add-via-forward.

open LEARN, $pipe;

}
my $learn_cmd = "| bayes_fixup.pl | sa-learn " . join(" ",@ARGV);
my $count = 0;
my $message = '';
while (<STDIN>) {
/^From/ and do {
if ($count) {
learn($message,$learn_cmd);
$message = '';
