No, you don't want SpamAssassin doing that. You want to use procmail.
After you get procmail set up, you'll want a procmailrc file something
like the following:
--- begin ~/.procmailrc ---
:0
* ^X-Spam-Flag:.*YES
!billgates@microsoft.com
--- end ~/.procmailrc ---
wait a sec... Are you using SpamAssassin and Postfix without procmail? I
thought you had to use procmail in order to use SpamAssassin. hehe.
Anyway, procmail is what you want for stuff like that.
I'm not sure how to do a 'global' procmailrc file, but I'm sure it is
possible.
(I've got a fetchmail + postfix + procmail + spamassassin running on my
box, and I've got all SLUG mails going to a SLUG folder, and all
Spam going to a Spam folder, using Maildir-style storage, and I even
have a MegaHAL-style bot answering email with a certain Subject: line.
Quite handy, really. :-)
