If you're using procmail, you've got an excellent way too hook in
other spam-fighting tools. I'm a big fan of spamassassin, which can be
added to your procmail filter like so:
:0 fw
| spamassassin
:0 h
* ^X-Spam-Flag: Yes
/dev/null
Mutt has the ability to parse headers (like those generated by
spamassassin and most other anti-spam filters) and read out a "score"
that can then be used anywhere standard mutt patterns can be... but I
don't use this feature (procmail serves me very well here).
