Not hard if you're using spamassassin.  If you use mutt, you might
want to add this to your .muttrc...

macro index    [       "| spamassassin -a -k<enter>"
macro pager    [       "| spamassassin -a -k<enter>"
macro index    ]       "| spamassassin -a -r<enter>"
macro pager    ]       "| spamassassin -a -r<enter>"

Whatever.  Not a conspiracy theorist.  I've been doing tech support
and security too long to attribute malice when the actual culprit is
stupidity.  8:o)

Judge Penfield Jackson ruled during the Clinton administration, case
closed.  No judge during this administration has had the balls to hold
the ruling, though, unfortunately.  John Kerry isn't my first choice,
but thank God he's going to be the next president.

Oregonians use paper ballots and vote by mail.  Not that I approve of
having to pay to vote (much less pay more to send in an official
ballot than spammers pay to spew their shit via the postal service;
reason enough alone that the USPS should be destroyed and reformed
from scratch, bulk mailers charged extra, not less).
