Well, poop.

Here's the situation then.  We're using DSPAM as our spam management solution.
We've got two classes of users - "trainers" and "globalusers".

Currently, our trainers are able to refine their personal spam filters by
forwarding / bouncing mail to spam.username at example.com or
notspam.username at example.com.  So, I've set things up to use the spam_bounce
hook, and that works great.

More recently, it was decided that the people using the "generic" filters (aka
"globaluser") should be presented with the spam management links as well.  In
their case, the "report as spam" and "report as innocent" buttons 
should invoke
a binary instead of bouncing the email.  Having the spam management links save
"pristine" copies of the email someplace on the webmail servers, and 
we'll push
it out at some regular interval and use this mail to further refine the 
generic
spam definitions.

I had hoped to decide the appropriate behavior based on my "spam_trainer"
preference, but I'm not sure how to proceed if I can't access the prefs scope
from the conf file.

Any suggestions?
