I saw this piece of code and did the same as you in my change of course.
Unfortunately, it didn't work (no logged "marked as SPAM", nor change in my

Ok I will have a look at this dspam user stuffs. I may have misconfigured
some parts... (I forgot to change my real email in my previous message but
it looks that the ml's web archive changes it to some non "easily" readable
by spam bots...).

Thanks.
