If we detect interest in this from any of the large IMAP providers
(and, I suppose the usual MUA providers, although that's usually
doable with an extension), I'd be willing to help cleaning it up into
a something that lets an MUA communicate to an IMAP server that the
user considers a message to be spam or not, perhaps with a little
extra optional info to describe the nature of its spamitude.

My IMAP-fu is not fabulous, so it would be nice to have someone with
more IMAP background to help.

R's,
John
