Okay, the rationale behind this thought is that I have seen some 
commercial AV solutions that deliver SPAM too a specific Exchange folder 
within a users account.  Therefore, would like to be able to do this 
using OSS and deliver to a IMAP folder.


- Well, you can do that with procmail. Since MS will add a header that 
some clients (like Thunderbird) respect, you can filter on that and move 
messages to a folder. My setup is:

/home/alex/.procmailrc :

:0:
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
mail/Junk

That way all junk mail goes there. Substitute mail/Junk for something 
else (like a communal spam folder, for example).
