What were you trying to do?

Have the MH scan(1) command indicate spam detection as generated by recent
changes to the MIT mail system.

What's wrong:

It doesn't, by default.

What should have happened:

Perhaps the default scan format should be adjusted to do so. Possibly, even,
this sort of thing was in the works or has even already been implemented,
but not yet incorporated into the release. Regardless, I brewed up my own,
which might prove helpful in making something similar for Athena, and so I'm
passing it along in case it's useful.

Here's sample output:
