A better question is do YOU have any plans to do anything about OD spam?
I sent out a request many months ago for a primary OD admin.  I got a
couple of responses along the lines of "I'd like to help OD, but I don't
want the responsibility".  So, you can try to get a hold on one of the
half dozen intermittently available people with administrative privleges
on the OD machines at admin@.

That said, you have sftp access to the OD machines, procmail is the local
delivery agent, and spamassassin is installed on OS X server by default
it would appear.  Feel free to volunteer to tackle the mail situation
on OD, or cobble together your own solution.
