Hmmm... on further reflection, your original request was for per-user SpamAssassin preferences.

I think your best bet is to turn OFF MIMEDefang's SpamAssassin integration, and run it from procmail.

Any MTA-integrated SpamAssassin calls are by their nature user-independent (since a given piece of email can have multiple recipients).  I think you're stuck with MUA calls only.
