I wonder if there couldn't be perhaps some sort of hybrid solution, whereby
Spambayes is managed locally by the users, as it is now, but it then somehow
communicates back to the server, which then takes the spam/ham databases and
applies it to the user's mailbox.

Hmm, then again, perhaps there's no benefit to that unless the server is set
to automatically delete the spam from the user's mailbox. Can't block at the
gateway level, since someone else might not consider the message<s> spam.
