There more too it but just wanted to show off the important
parts.  If anywhere in the email contains a word located in
"spam_words", then I retag the Subject line and forward the
mail to my spam account.

Hmm... I like the basic approach, but what if the spam word is profanity?
You've now stuck it in the subject of a message that the user might otherwise
have deleted without opening. I envision headlines of "Mail administrator
guilty of adding profanity to email."

How about a format for spam_words of "spamword:tagword" where tagword is
something meaningful (and "correct") that gets added to the Subject:?
