If mail is spam-tagged by UCC's spamassassin or UCS's kaspersky (has a "X-Spam-Status: Yes" header), then the mail will be delivered to the mailbox ~/.ucc-spam . The mailbox is also symlinked to by ~/mail/ucc-spam and ~/Mail/ucc-spam. (Hooray for differing unix conventions). > Is the appropriate procmailrc file readable outside of mooneye? Nope, though it's included below.

Personally I forward all UWA-tagged-spam straight into the depths of /dev/null :P I haven't missed any mail this way and it kinda saves going through all the crap in my Trash folder, which I check and delete every once in a while.

You might not have missed it, but I certainly get mail mistagged false positively here and there. ::-) Still, there's too much signal out there to read it all, let alone digging through the noise.
