Right, you do that by configuring your MTA (Exim, postfix etc.) or MDA
(procmail, Mail::Audit script, etc.) appropriately.

That sounds an awful lot like a mail client to me.  mutt has a nice
split-screen mode where you can see N lines of your index at the same
time as the current message.  (Try "set index_lines 5".) Create a couple
of macros (pipe through "spamassassin -r", bounce to original
recipient), and you're done.

Hmmm: bouncing to original recipient might require an external script.
Should be pretty easy to pull out the right address using either
Python's rfc822 module or Perl's Mail::Internet.

If you want multiple reports, you'd probably have to write a custom
script.  Something like:

  if SA's RAZOR_CHECK didn't match:
    pipe through spamassassin -r
  if SA didn't flag it as spam:
    send to spamassassing-sightings
  ... etc ...

Doesn't sound too hard to me.  Probably a good way to pass a rainy
afternoon.
