Only thing I would do differently is not put this in the global
maildroprc. My preference is to let the user have ultimate control
over how they handle spam, but provide them with a default that is
ready to roll. What that means is to create a spam folder when their
account gets created, then create the filtering rule in the *user*
maildroprc. I make sure the rule is created with the exact same
format as if the serversidefilter plugin had made it so the user can
change it however they wish using that plugin. I also make sure the
spam folder is subscribed to, etc., so they can also change it in the
SM interface.
