Solved.
Indeed it was already working previously.
My confusion came from my reading of the file mail.info
In fact for USER_IN_BLACKLIST there is *no* indication like the following :

For a real spam the following is indicated in the log file.
Obviously this is not the case for USER_IN_BLACKLIST.

...
spamd: identified spam (5.0/2.0) for spamfilter:5001 in 0.6 seconds,  
1451 bytes.
...

Thanks for your attention.

Bye,
