I do have a 'sa-learnd' that looks like it at least works with the
thunderbird version.
This is only needed for someone running amavisd-new as it doesn't run
spamd.

--add-addr-to-whitelist=addr Add addr to persistent address
whitelist
--add-addr-to-blacklist=addr Add addr to persistent address
blacklist
--remove-addr-from-whitelist=addr Remove addr from persistent
address list

I also found that three instances of outlook 'didn't work'
Ie, I could drop options down, fill them out, but when I 'report as
spam/ham/revoke' it didn't matter, 'nothing happened'
Also noticed that even if the ip was set wrong, there were no error
messages. No status, no feedback.
As in nothing at all. Tcpdump listing on the socket, or even nc -l 783
showed no attempt to even connect.
Not sure what was happeing, but three different outlooks' nothing
happened.
You might want to check the status of the server when someone changed
options:
The PING command does not actually trigger any spam checking, and (as
with
SKIP) no additional input is expected. It returns a simple confirmation
response, like this:
SPAMD/1.2 0 PONG
This facility may be useful for monitoring programs which wish to check
that
the daemon is alive and providing at least a basic response within a
reasonable
time frame.
Also, this looks promissing for future versions:
To report a spam message:
TELL SPAMC/1.3
Message-class: spam
Set: local, remove

I haven't done any 'aqua' programming, but all the mac 'info/option'
boxes there are three buttons in the title frame.

I guess 'message-class:' is not needed for remove.
Also also note some 'local' and 'remote' options. For reporting.
I have attached a apache 2.0 class license to a file I'll send next.
It isn't complete, doesn't implement everything that sa coach should
implement
(like the ping/pong, sounds like a good idea!)
It doesn't yet implement: (guess I will have to fire up a spamd to
reverse engineer it)
Set and Remove and will return
two possible headers, DidSet and DidRemove which indicate which action
was
taken. It is up to the caller to determine if the proper action
happened. Here
are some examples:
