[Spambayes] training via email forwarding

I like forwarding because I can forward to myself and procmail will arrange
for the training to happen.

A cron job that runs mboxtrain periodically would do it.

It doesn't look that tough to teach mboxtrain about forwarded email messages,
so that's probably what I'd do.

It takes all kinds. :)

I don't want to / can't run a server on the mail server.
