Kevin, if you simply mark the mail as spam and do no further processing after SpamAssassin there is no censorship involved. All you're doing is telling the recipient that this mail is probably spam. With a little experience the users will figure out how to sort their email so that the egregious spam is tossed into the bin right away and the "maybe" stuff is put into a separate mail folder for human scanning by the account holder. What's to whine about censorship with something like that?
