Move tagged spam to folder

[Mark Nienberg]

Probably the most common setup is to use MailScanners two-level scoring
approach, where you specify a minimum value to be considered spam (usually 5)
and a minimum value to be considered "high-scoring" spam (I use 12, I think the
default is 15).  Then allow MailScanner to delete the "high-scoring" spam and tell it to
deliver the rest of the spam, but first alter the subject line.  By default the subject line
is altered to include "{Spam?}" at the beginning.  That is something that can be
filtered on very simply in procmail.  Details of all this can be found in the
MailScanner.conf file.
