I don't know about Larry, but I don't plan on adding it, for several
reasons:

1. Nobody has made a good enough case for this belonging in Cyrus
instead of the MTA (yes, I know that Sieve can be used anywhere, but
this discussion has been in the context of Cyrus).

2. It goes against the design of Sieve, which does not call external
programs (Sieve is not procmail or an anti-SPAM measure).

3. Its not documented.  Currently most (if not all) features of Cyrus
are standards-based, either via an RFC or ID.

4. Sendmail/milter works fine for me.


If it would help, I would consider implementing

http://search.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-segmuller-sieve-relation-01.txt

so that better decisions can be made on the contents of SPAM-flagging
headers.
