I have a feature request that I would like to add in to the mix.
 
I would like to see an editable email footer that could contain a URL to mark that email as spam.  This would require SF to generate ID's for all emails and not just black listed.  Once the link is pressed it would retrieve the email header from the ID and mark it as spam so that the details can be added to the various blacklists.  This should only be used on inbound emails and have an option in the configuration to specify the amount of time that ID's are stored (similar to quarantine database rules).
 
My users have requested this many times so I am sure I am not alone in making such a suggestion.

I would love to have a feature such as this. 
Currently, we have users forward their "spam headers" to a special address and have someone sift through them once or twice a week to add the relevant info to our blacklists.   This poses 2 problems:
1 - I have to let an employee spend 3-4 hours per week looking at junk mail
2 - It is a hard stretch for most of our users to copy and paste headers and send them to a spam catch address.
Just my 2 cents.

Our Problem is that we need something that does not require installation on client computers.  It needs to be something that can be linked from an email.  Remember the end user's motto - KISS == Keep It SIMPLE Stupid.  Our users could not handle the installation of a program.
 
But it is a cool program though that could indeed be handy.
