Mail Scanner and Spam Assassin report generation

In MY situation being able to not feed the message back into the Bayes
engine is NOT an issue.

We would ONLY be turning on Spam report generation in the body for any NON
HIGH SCORING spam. High Scoring Spam would still be an immidiate DELETE.
We only would turn it on when we adjust Spam Scoring. (Old default score
for SPAM becomes High Scoring level) Like in my example, 7.0 is now
considered High Scoring DELETE right away.  5.0 becomes new score to be
SPAM (not high scoring) so the 5.0-6.99 would get delivered for a few
weeks (which meanwhile we would take feedback from users on false
positives)
So after a 3 week period we would go back to DELETE for SPAM
and DELETE for HIGH SCORING SPAM.

It's only a feature we would use ocassionaly here.  But very valuable..

Thanks for EVERYONE's help!
