Ok, how 'bout, spamd, being a client of SA, ought to be able to control SA's output? From this modular, decoupled design perspective, SA should provide a hook through which clients such as spamd could get reports - to do with them as they wish. It's up to spamd whether it wants to be "polite," and use the reports (whether received by capturing stderr, or a hook), and spamd could have switches so the user could tell it what to do in this regard.
