My server is moving all tagged spam into the IMAP spam folder. Very 
nice for the IMAP users, but not for the POP users.  Of course the 
server don't know, and the mysql database for users does not have any 
flags for this.  Don't want my server to fill up with spam from POP 
users that don't know to check via IMAP.
I am using roundcubemail for the webmail IMAP client.  Is there any 
way for POP users to indicate that they do not want spam so nicely 
auto moved to the IMAP spam folder?
Obviously I picked this up and did not think through the results. Seemed 
good at the time...

mkdir /home/sieve
cat <<EOF>/home/sieve/globalfilter.sieve || exit 1
require "fileinto";
   if exists "X-Spam-Flag" {
           if header :contains "X-Spam-Flag" "NO" {
           } else {
           fileinto "Spam";
           stop;
       }
   }
   if header :contains "subject" ["***SPAM***"] {
     fileinto "Spam";
     stop;
   }
EOF

chown -R vmail:mail /home/sieve

============================================

So one option is just to disable this.  Another is to work out how each 
user can do this if they want...
