Procmail handles all local delivery, and I'm moving from a standalone
spamd/spamc setup where users do something like

:0:
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
spam

in their .procmailrc files.  By policy, the server just tags; what users
do with that info is up to them.

As far as I can tell, that shouldn't be spoofable by a spammer simply
tacking on a 'X-Spam-Status: No' flag.
