Paga, Derek,

My vote is that it is reasonable to provide ASK with a bypass facility - one 
of the most significant criticisms of CR systems are that they multiply spam 
volume.  This facility can significantly reduce this. I understand the 
procmail system but this option is not open to me and users often want to 
vet their spam filter for spurious hits and therefore wish to leave 
filtering to their mail client.

The 'S' option (save to spam filter) is nice for me.  I prefer to vet these 
unclassified mails via the "ask process queue" (which I have hacked to show 
origin and subject but no bodytext) than receiving them in my inbox. This 
provides me with a neat way to feed spam assassin.

I am happy with my hacks - they are working very nicely for me.

Cheers for ASK - it is saving me a huge amount of annoyance!
