Thanks John,
the problem is that our moderators are getting way too much mail and just
want to trash the high-scoring meesages.
We filter on mailman mailing lists in a roundabout way.
We changed the mailman "post" alias to invoke a procmail script, like:
list-blah: "|/usr/bin/procmail -m /etc/procmailrcs/list-blah.rc"
Then, the procmail recipe 1. runs spamc, 2. /dev/nulls anything over
10, and 3. calls mailman "post" the way the alias used to. I've
included an example below.
Then, in the mailman config for that list, under privacy option ->
Spam Filters, we added a line to the "Legacy anti-spam filter" section
that says "X-Spam-Flag: YES" causing anything between our default
score and 10 to get held for moderation. You could of course, change
these levels and take different actions if you have a more recent
version of mailman.
Maybe that helps...

If you're managing your mailing lists using Mailman, there are patches
floating around that will make mailman pass messages through SA and
hold high-scoring messages for moderation.

Liberals love sex ed because it teaches kids to be safe around their
sex organs. Conservatives love gun education because it teaches kids
to be safe around guns. However, both believe that the other's
education goals lead to dangers too terrible to contemplate.
