       [:user <name: string>]
       [:over" / :under <limit: string>]

The spamd test is an interface with spamd daemon, which is a part of SpamAssassin mail filter. The test evaluates to True if SpamAssassin recognized the message as spam, or the message spam score satisfies the given relation.

If the argument is :over and the spam score is greater than or equal to the number provided, the test is true; otherwise, it is False.

If the argument is :under and the spam score is less than or equal to the number provided, the test is True; otherwise, it is False.

    {
      discard;
    }
