the pop3 protocol does not change the contents of the message. Hence, anybody downloading it their mail via pop or accessing it via IMAP has the same options later downstream, should their client of choice permit. Forwarding a mail as an attachment is probably the safest way to go. You can then use perl and the Mail::Box module to get the part out, and return an array of lines to be fed into the Mail::SpamAssassin modules. This is how most reporting tools prefer to receive their email (spamcop, etc). Another way to manage all this would be to create a web form that accepts mbox files, which most MUAs can export. But i doubt there will ever be an MUA which can't forward as an attachment properly.
