run them in your MTA before pushing stuff into the LDA?

e.g. i deliver incoming via lmtp to dspam. dspam reinjects the mail into
postfix. and postfix calls dovecot-lda to deliver the mail.

works flawlessly here. so i dont see why we should bloat dovecot-lda,
when most mail server handle that just fine already.

just my 2 cents,
