Its worth noting that this method leaves the user's client to filter

not spam (:true bit).
I like the authenticated bit though, hadn't thought of that myself :)
I had gone down the same path originally on my new server, but found I
liked the way it used to work on my old machine where the email gets
tagged as SPAM in the subject and also encloses the spam in the email
report as an attachment. If you want to go down that route I would
suggest sa-exim - was very easy to install and configure, and quite a
few resources out there explaining it.
Here's my 0.02p
I also simply get spamd to add headers, then use Seive rules to filter
all mail.
Depending on how anal I set the seive rules some legitimate mail still
gets filtered out, and when I retrieve it from my spam bucket I like ti
to be in the state it was sent without any indication that it has been
futzed with by the system.
Horses for courses.
