Astute readers will notice that (1) is a trivially simple MUA hack, and that (2) isn't necessary for many installations wanting TiS info (for filter tuning) and don't forward them anywhere.

For filter training you also need "ham" type submissions,

Only if you're doing server-based Bayes and the abuse handling mechanism is separate from the inbound mail flow. You don't necessarily need user-end ham submissions if you can get at the mailflow.

IME, FPs increase after spam training and the only remedy I've been able to find is to do ham training with messages manually retrieved from spam folders. For POP3 users, you have no way to know which messages they discard, either manually or automatically, and which they consider ham. How do you tune the filter using just the mail flow?
