    I've noticed that derivations of my email address are mangled and in
so many spam lists, they help identify when mails are spam, no matter
what.  "Brian4421 at fahrlander.net" used to be circulated widely, and any
mail for that address was sent straight to spam-reporting the moment it
arrived.  Several others are that way, too.

   Is there any *simple* way to report such spam, using postfix, amavis,
spamassassin?

   Previous, older, sendmail setups were easy- put "spam: | spamd
- --report" into /etc/alias and away we go.  But all the howtos I'm seeing
are suggesting changes to the master.cf file and making a big thing out
of it.

   Anyone doing this? Is there a simpler way?
