That was just another thing that came to my mind after I had written the rest of my reasoning. The idea is that iff /var/spool/dspam is shared between several instances of dspam (ie. in a cluster setup), then it should not be removed by just purging one of these instances. But I'm not sure if it's even technically possibly to share /var/spool/dspam and doubt that it's a common real life scenario. If you think that this is a scenario the package should care about, a debconf question similar to mysql is probably the easiest way to implement a safeguard. Gaudenz -- Ever tried. Ever failed.
