Yes, the simplest way is to move reported SPAM/HAM to specified global
folders and to use fetchmail to pull the messages from those folders and
feed them to spamassassin.

su -l spamd --command='fetchmail --all --silent --norewrite  \
                                 --folder "Shared
Folders.departments.cis.report-ham" \
                                  --mda "sa-learn --ham"'

su -l spamd --command='fetchmail --all --silent --norewrite \
                                  --folder "Shared
Folders.departments.cis.report-spam" \
                                  --mda "sa-learn --spam"'
