Just want to add my voice _in support_ of this design. Please,
*do not* make anti-spam system internal part of kmail. Anti-spam
programs are usually in the very fast process of changing (no
one knows exactly what these program should do exactly) and
speed of development of such huge pieces of software as KDE
surely is is too slow for something like that (and who know
whether anything better than bogofilter will not be available in
the next year?). Of course, it doesn't mean that support for
inclusion of such filters should not be extended as much as
possible (for example, would it be possible to use three-level
system -- the one which divides messages into ham, spam, and
unsure?).

Just my 2¢.

        Have a nice day,

                Matej
