Maybe SA can be of use here.

I took over this email server late in 2003.  According to the nasd a 
copy of all broker emails must be kept. 
At first we were using mbox and now we use Maildir.  One user has a copy 
of all email including "[SPAM]" mails.
We have discussed it and want to remove all the mail marked as [SPAM] 
and send it to the bit bucket before archiving it.  I found some perl 
scripts and other scripts which are supposed to do what I want but they 
all either segfault or don't do anything. 

Then I thought I could maybe run them through SA with a procmail entry 
to send them off to never never land.  Could someone explain how to do 
this with both types of inboxes.  I think I know how with Maildir but am 
not so sure with the old mbox files.  If I don't need to fool with 
procmail so much the better.

This will probably remove 10 gigs of mail from what I need to archive.

Thanks ahead.
