You can configure Thunderbird to check for the SpamAssassin headers

client-side filtering will work in conjunction with the server-side
filtering.
And then you use imap to put your junk folder back on the server so you
can run sa-learn on it - so you just click the junk button and
sa-learn learns your preferences and also relearns if needed on ones
that spamassasin caught as well as the ones that it didn't.
But what's new about that? All that takes is a filter rule on a custom
header, which I've been doing for ages.
As I read the setting -- just installed 1.5 -- it seems to suggest that
if you are getting SA headers, Tbird will trust them. So if you are
*also* using Tbird's Junk features (bayes), they will not override SA's
headers. I've previously not used any of Tbird's Junk features because I
too use SA and server rules to handle that stuff. But this could make
them work together a little more nicely, or give people w/o the
possibility of setting server-side rules to having routing of junk
automatically to the appropriate place. I'm at least going to see how
they play together, but might still revert to turning the client stuff
off again.
